@@harrisdupree3323 HARRIS, Most exactly..Never gravitated towards him, his singing, his music..Not a Country Music fan anyway..but love some of their hot, dexterous, talented players..like these cats!! That's real talent!!
@@cappystrano1 ..And this "Coffin Nails" song is just merely a "carbon copy" of that..Only viewed this at the behedst of my brother, also a player like me, who wanted me to see Rhodes & Emmons in action backing this idiot!!
Damn, that is one TIGHT band! Those guys can really play. The drummer, a Scandinavian import, lays down one of the best swinging quick shuffle beats you'll ever hear, and the way Buddy Emmons rolls in those pedals on his steel guitar is just something to hear. You're going to LOVE this rendition of a great classic song. Best ever! Enjoy!
OMG - Tight! Like you could not fit a human hair in between each 16th note. VERY steady time. And ET's vocals have that extremely subtle flatness (I mean like it's on a razor's edge of being flat) that makes the whole thing cool and together. My parents were fans of his but I never realized his musical greatness until I saw the "Coal Miner's Daughter " movie. I love all kinds of music - rock, jazz, reggae, blues, classical, you name it - but Ernie Tubb and his band are really something special. In their own category.
In the 40's and 50's, music like this was criticized as not being real country. Drums? Degenerate. Electric guitar? Sacrilege. Blues progression? Puhleese! Don't get me wrong. Popular "country music" today is crap, and has been for decades.
My daddy could play almost like Leon. No joke. He spent his 57 years trying to perfect this exact sound from Leon. I am commenting to express that my dads inspiration from Leon's guitar playing, brought him the utmost happiness throughout his short time here on earth. I miss you daddy. We listened to this all the time when I was little girl. He was an old soul. Loved Leon, loved Ernest Tubb and Elvis. I'm listening always, just for him ♥️ I'll never stop.
Dame this $hit never ages, or ages like wine. Such talent in the freaking band even the kid on the drums. These are the jazzy, country, rockabilly pioneers. Love it!!
There's a couple of instrumental things those guys did with that drummer that are more be-bop jazz, than anything. Check out a tune called "Honey Fingers".
I once met ET at a performance in Manhattan, Kansas. My young girlfriend was so excited to meet him. He was so gracious and spent several minutes visiting with us. He was getting on in years and seemed pleased to have such enthusiastic young fans. What a fine gentleman!
Gosh, my Daddy sounded exactly like Mr. Tubb when he sang years ago. I can remember Daddy singing "Walking the Floor Over You" and being amazed. These old song remind me of my Daddy from those many years ago when I was a kid. Daddy went on home iin 1994. One day I hope to hear him sing again in the presence of our Savior Jesus Christ. In the meantime I still have Mama at 74 singing every Sunday in church making a joyful noise unto the Lord.
I am balling my eyes out. God bless your sweet mother. My mom passed 2 years ago at the young age of 63. She never missed a church service. She sang every service and had the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. She is singing with the angels now with your daddy. Take care friend
My grandfather owned an old honkytonk bar. We served Hamburg's that went an inch or more outside the bun, an inch or more thick. If you got fried onions, we served it with a fork, and never fried them or the burger in grease, used water. Had hot dogs. Served crab balls oyster fritters, stew, and steamed crabs depending on the season. He worked the water, when he didn't the rest of my family did, so we always had fresh. Twice a year we had fish fries. Served hushpuppies. They served jarred pickled pigs' knuckles, sausages, chips etc. Had beer on draft, and canned and bottled beer, stuff like Papst, Original Bud, Schlitz, Black Label, Old Milwaukee, Miller and Michelob. The place was small, and my father and uncle owned a tile company before they went into the army, so my grandfather had some friends and family take all the remnant tiles left over, no certain color, style just however they grabbed them, and do the walls. I met people as far north as New York that had been there then come back, the tables were placed in rows, and you sat beside whoever else was there, so it was known as a social place. The locals swore if you were lonely go there, you won't be for long. They had a pool table, but Saturday nights, they covered it, and a band played behind it. Many time`s I heard this song, or many like it, and I still hear that bass and see all my elder friends and family dancing. The only other type of music was polka, we were of Czech descent, so it was very well known, and the family had a polka band that played there once or twice a month to. I loved Earnest Tubb, and this era of country, it sure brings back some good memories....
Old ET was so proud of his players .... Just look at him grin after Buddy played a totally clean break with impeccable string blocking .. Whoaaa this video rocks .
In 1968 Ernest played at the high school auditorium here in Perryton Tx. My dad was 12 and wanted to go see it so bad that when his parents wouldn't take him he snuck off on his bicycle rode across town and got to see Ernest put on a show ! He said it was really good.. lol. This is my kind of music.
His live version of Drivin' Nails In My Coffin at the Spanish Castle, Washington is the best version I've ever heard and midway through the song young Leon on guitar ducks for cover when a bulb exploded on someone's camera, Ernest laughs at the end saying, "I'm tellin' you, I thought one of those jealous husbands in Dallas done caught up with Leon and shot him, bless his heart!"
The PNW was a busy place for country players back in the day. There were bars and dance halls from Everett to Portland that guys like Ernest and Lefty and Buck played on a regular circuit. One lady told me you could always tell how drunk Buck Owens was getting by how far his eyes were crossed.
What a picker he is. Next time I am in Nashville, I will definitely go by there and hopefully get to hear him in person. I would love to get his autograph. I know Ernest mentions his name in some of his songs. Wow is he great!
thing is, someone nowadays can figure out the song and teach it to me, but i want to learn their take on how they play stuff, why they choose the notes and stuff like that. every guitar player and even bassist has a personal touch to it and i try to learn from everyone, especially those i love. even guitarist that aren't as good as me have merit too, they can still teach me something, and i can teach them something too.
My aunt Margie and uncle Delbert took me to see Ernest tubb at the Crockett high school in 1969 I believe it was and he's the one who influenced my taste in music.
Wouldn't it be nice if the world still moved slowly enough that children could play instruments for long enough to be as good as these guys when they were older?
Back in the day Bob Wills ( with Tommy Duncan ) and ET had the tightest live band in country music. ET always had real talent in his band. Buck Owens Buckaroos were really good too with Don Rich ( if you get a chance listen to The Instrumental Hits Of Buck Owens And His Buckaroos and you will hear why ) but this ET line up is my favorite . The whole band is top notch , Buddy and Leon are amazing.
YEAH!!!! AN OLDIE BUT "STILL" A GREAT GOODIE!!!!!! ERNEST TUBB WAS MY DAD'S FAVORITE SINGER, AND HE SANG SO MANY OF THEM I THOUGHT THEY WERE ALL MY DAD'S SONGS!!!!!! WHAT DOES A LITTLE KID KNOW??? WELL, NOW I'M A BIG KID, AND I STILL LOVE THIS SONG AND ERNEST, THANKS FOR POSTING THIS TOM, OPA!!!!!!!!
The host of this show was T. Tommy Cutrer, who was very well known in Nashville during the 1960's. I was lucky enough to grow up in Tennessee, where we obviously had many great music stars, however, I always envied Texas for performers like ET and the Texas Troubadours. I could listen to that "Texas" sound all day!
Ernest Tubb is a name i have heard alot with my love of traditional Country Music but i never listened to him. I am from Ireland and love Irish Country Music and we have an artist named "Big Tom" and his band the "Mainliners", i love them and i love these boys because the similar sound. Listen to songs from Big Tom's album "Smoke Along The Track", "Souvenirs", and "Ashes Of Love".
I own a starter model pedal steel and play a little. I was amazed at the sounds Buddy was getting without moving the slide. His feet and knees must have really been working.
This is what country music is supposed to be, It was the working man's blues. This gives us an insight into the struggles of life. Unfortunately we have regressed economically and now much of the working class are poor again.
Don't want to sound maudlin but the one thing that nobody can take away from us is our memories. Goodness me this song takes me way, way back to listening to my first country music. Thank you
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
Everything is perfect in this performance but I have to applaud that pedal steel guitar solo!!! Wow, it was incredible! That guitar solo was perfect too.
Hi, Im from Denmark. We listened to Ernest on the radio in the 60's. He was a character. A haunting steelguitar and a familar, drawling voice that made you feel good. I dont understand todays country music.
Everyone crying and whining that there isn't any good country music anymore just isn't looking. It's still being played, just like punk rock, you find the real thing in the underground where it never stopped. Keep looking and you'll find it.
Nobody has ever played steel any better than Buddy, and I think it's a safe bet to say that nobody ever had more fun doing it than he did either! Watching Buddy play is almost as enjoyable as listening to him.
Drummer is shuffling like it ain't shit...these guys were soo cool. Just starting lap steel. Hopefully I can get the pedal solo close enough on the c6.
SO TRUE. Keeping that shuffle locked steady with the bass is a heck of a lot harder than it sounds, ain't it? This band is really solid. I like how you can watch the drummer over Tubb's shoulder in some shots and see the concentration in his eyes. That man is a darn CLOCK... just what you need.
I'm having so much fun listening to this immaculate playjng that I hardly notice how I can't stop sobbing hysterically at how terrifyingly sad it would be were I just driving nails in my coffin. Hug everybody in your life! Hug them now with both hands so they put that god damned hammer down.
Gosh I wish I was there in the good ole days when Hank and Roy were around. My grandpap saw Hank at the grand ole opry in 52. I wish this country music was still in style
It is still in style. It will never go out of style. This is county and Western music at it's finest. It's is such a wonderful privilege to get to listen and watch this performance.
My sweetheart has gone And I'm so lonely She said that she and I were through So I started out drinkin' for past time Drivin' nails in my coffin over you I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Everytime I drink a bottle of booze I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin, Lord I'm drivin' those nails over you Now ever since the day That we've parted I've been so sad and so blue I'm always thinking of you love And I just can't quit Drinking that old booze I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Now you've turned me down You don't want me There's nothing now I can lose I'm just drivin' those nails in my coffin And worryin' my darlin' over you I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Like Johnny Cash said, "Country music today is for people that don't like country music."
They never found Garth Brooks's fingerprints.....
@@stewartfenton7660is that who George Strait was singing about?
@@QuiteTheRhino I don't know, to tell the truth. But they all say not guilty......

@@joshb8976 sit tight while I find out who Tom Segura is. Is he safe? Er, sorry about that one.
2024? Still listening? Damn good taste in music
ET forever.
My dad always said that one of the things that made Ernest Tubb so great was that he always kept an impeccable band.
True-he was never a great vocalist and was probably the weakest link in his band but was smart enough to hire and keep the best players behind him.
Definitely
And he made “ Walk-in the floor over you” famous......only his voice for that song.
@@harrisdupree3323 HARRIS, Most exactly..Never gravitated towards him, his singing, his music..Not a Country Music fan anyway..but love some of their hot, dexterous, talented players..like these cats!! That's real talent!!

Hes driving nails man.
Now I do thanks
Every time...even just s 1 at 2:27. These guys had fun!
rim shots
Josh Sutton Because he’s an artist 🙂
Texas two step music at it's finest, the guitar work is off the freaking hook!!! RIP Ernest we sure miss you.
Why can’t country music still be like this, so tight
Instead it sounds like pop music in a Sears cowboy hat.
Check out Charley Crockett
From the late great Tom Petty; it's bad rock and roll with a violin

Don Mills did an even better swing shuffle beat in the 1970's.
すごいおやじだなあーーー
Ladies and gentlemen, this is real country and western music !
Fuck yeah!!!!!
Not like that UNreal country music.

The genuine article!
Dear heavens music not sung by some pathetic city slicker with writing on the third grade level
i cant even play the radio near as good as leon plays his guitar.
Thats a pretty good one ! I like that lmao.. I can't either ! Lmao..
Amen. Feeling ya.
Lol that's pretty funny I think I may use it if it's ok with you don't want to steal your joke suppose stealing is stealing.
@@danscibek1590 yes sir of course ! Use it all you want !
Buddy Emmons is amazing too. Wow!
The gentleman Ernest was I like how he always gave credit in his songs to Leon and Buddy.
Man, that’s some of the best steel playing you’ll ever hear!
Bud Emmons is a legend

Blessed are those that honor their parents, I hope you realize that, indeed you are blessed. One day you will see him again......
That's badass. Thank you. Ernie Tubb and Leon. Two characters I hope to meet on the other side. 😂

I totally agree 👍👍👍

Rest in peace Ernest, Buddy, and Leon ! Thank you for the wonderful music !
Ernest always prided himself on having the best band in the biz, he never minded letting them run either. Great stuff.
Go ernest
Probably the best backing band in country music history
My baby don't listen to nothin' but Ernest Tubb.
Old ET was so proud of his players .... Just look at him grin after Buddy played a totally clean break with impeccable string blocking .. Whoaaa this video rocks .
Yes but, like Bob Wills, woe be unto the player who was not ready or screwed up when Ernest called his name. Cal Smith said there was hell to pay
Deltoidicus what interview did he say it in?
Deltoidicus after viewing this video, I believe it. All smiles as long as you "earn your paycheck.".
Ernest Tubb always had a really good band full of good musicians.
Hello friend, how are you doing today.
I wish country music was still a genre
I can't get enough of this song. I just love the big ol grin Ernest gets after Buddy nails his solo. Master performers at the top of their game.
In 1968 Ernest played at the high school auditorium here in Perryton Tx. My dad was 12 and wanted to go see it so bad that when his parents wouldn't take him he snuck off on his bicycle rode across town and got to see Ernest put on a show !

That Buddy Emmons solo is amazing.
A real thrill to see and hear him in this clip. Heard him on recordings but never on video before. True master, eh?
I have never seen a steel guitar being played with such style.

This is one of the greatest country songs of all time!
Now that's real Country music as I remember it. Fantastic musicians.
believe it or not the guitar player Leon Rhodes is still alive and plays live at Ernest Tubbs Record shop 2016
Thank God, was wondering bout his status.
What a picker he is. Next time I am in Nashville, I will definitely go by there and hopefully get to hear him in person. I would love to get his autograph. I know Ernest mentions his name in some of his songs. Wow is he great!
i want guitar lessons from him so badly, and Carl Perkins too, if only he was still alive,
thing is, someone nowadays can figure out the song and teach it to me, but i want to learn their take on how they play stuff, why they choose the notes and stuff like that. every guitar player and even bassist has a personal touch to it and i try to learn from everyone, especially those i love. even guitarist that aren't as good as me have merit too, they can still teach me something, and i can teach them something too.
Unfortunately, Leon just passed away.
This video never gets old this performance is amazing.
My aunt Margie and uncle Delbert took me to see Ernest tubb at the Crockett high school in 1969 I believe it was and he's the one who influenced my taste in music.
Man, just listen to the groove and Buddy Emmons kicking it into overdrive...effortlessly!
Wouldn't it be nice if the world still moved slowly enough that children could play instruments for long enough to be as good as these guys when they were older?
@Wes 76 It's definitely disheartening, although there are always a few who try to learn from the past.
Saw ET at the Broken Spoke in Austin , he was and is still the best!
Listening to this and drinking a cold one, that's what im talking about
Yeah, man
Driving nails in your coffin lol
I've got a couple years to figure that out but it sure sounds awesome!
brad fiser uugh Soo good
hell yah
Too bad this type of Country Music no longer exists... the only kind as far as I'm concerned!! Love it!!
Junior Brown's still at it!
Pure country gold. If this type of country music was played today ppl would understand why it's so great. Earnest did it best
This is real country music What a Steel player too
Back in the day Bob Wills ( with Tommy Duncan ) and ET had the tightest live band in country music. ET always had real talent in his band. Buck Owens Buckaroos were really good too with Don Rich ( if you get a chance listen to The Instrumental Hits Of Buck Owens And His Buckaroos and you will hear why ) but this ET line up is my favorite .

Just rediscovered Ernest Tubb after years. Legend!
People should know that while the Beatles and Stones were polishing their Blues chops, this here had been going for many years.
Now THAT’S country music!
Amen Brother
Blown away by the Audio on this recording, it's very impressive, as well as this classic diddly!
God damn I wish this was the studio version. This is so good
YEAH!!!! AN OLDIE BUT "STILL" A GREAT GOODIE!!!!!! ERNEST TUBB WAS MY DAD'S FAVORITE SINGER, AND HE SANG SO MANY OF THEM I THOUGHT THEY WERE ALL MY DAD'S SONGS!!!!!! WHAT DOES A LITTLE KID KNOW???

The country legend Ernest Tubb..phenominal singer and guitar strummer..This was back in the day..Grew up listening to Ernest Tubb..RIP
That’s one tight, professional band. Why do I get the feeling that with Mr Tubbs you don’t mess up. The smile on his face doesn’t fool me.
Such a great song..... Ernest Tubb.....True Legend.....🎤🎸🔥💪👊🙏

Pure gold, the band is stellar, especially the amazing Bud Emmons on Pedal Steel.
My mother's favorite country star!
Want this played to celebrate my passing!!!
He is such a talented singer, love listening to his songs, the best ever
Hello Genevieve, how are you doing, hope you are good?
Buddy Emmons was playing the hell out of that steel, and wasn't even really paying attention to what he was doing. Amazing.
+Tim Woods He's a master of the pedals and bars.
with no amp. it works got a much better tone beacuse i hit the strings harder and i don't annoy the neighbours.
he made it look so easy. truly God given talent!
I own a starter model pedal steel and play a little.
I was amazed at the sounds Buddy was getting without moving the slide.
His feet and knees must have really been working.
What else would you expect from the greatest ever steel player
This is what country music is supposed to be, It was the working man's blues. This gives us an insight into the struggles of life. Unfortunately we have regressed economically and now much of the working class are poor again.
Don't want to sound maudlin but the one thing that nobody can take away from us is our memories. Goodness me this song takes me way, way back to listening to my first country music. Thank you
Hello friend, how're you doing today?
Man, these guys are so great.
I'm here because of George and Randy s duet in 1991 after they sang it, I had to come here!
Just love the relaxed confidence of the musicians on live TV
Once of a kind voice and great musicians/group. Love the acoustic bass . . . perfect mix of them all together.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
Great performances. So much talent on that stage. You really can hear the influence of twelve bar blues in those old country songs.
One of the greatest live performances of all time.
Everything is perfect in this performance but I have to applaud that pedal steel guitar solo!!! Wow, it was incredible! That guitar solo was perfect too.
Hi, Im from Denmark. We listened to Ernest on the radio in the 60's. He was a character. A haunting steelguitar and a familar, drawling voice that made you feel good. I dont understand todays country music.
Best steel/guitar solo ever!!
Check Emmons out here: ua-cam.com/video/Z25idl85H58/v-deo.html
Everyone crying and whining that there isn't any good country music anymore just isn't looking. It's still being played, just like punk rock, you find the real thing in the underground where it never stopped. Keep looking and you'll find it.
Charley crockett for the win!
Tony john!
Colter wall, Colby t helms, Vincent Neal Emerson to name a few
I was definitely born too late; wish I was in this studio watching these awesome performers !!!!! Great music !!!!!
I love all the old school country music I'm. old school with all my heart
Remember the days when Country Music was actual Country Music.. before it became reconditioned rap music with a steel guitar?
I wish I would've grown up in that time. Today's pop country sucksssss
country music was the first gangster rap.. booze fights & women
totally agree
+robert wells ....Bullshit!
+robert wells ....Bullshit!
My mother loved Ernest. The apple doesn't fall from the tree.
Gosh what a great video, brilliant just Brilliant xx
The spectacular musicianship paired with the honesty of the lyrics sits right with this particular gentleman with alcoholic tendencies.
And they call the new stuff country.
Today's shit is crossover pop
Todays shit pisses me off
@@themasterofwhat_4505 me as well..
Tractor rap. Is what I call the new crap
You mean shit right. Lol agreed
Nobody has ever played steel any better than Buddy, and I think it's a safe bet to say that nobody ever had more fun doing it than he did either! Watching Buddy play is almost as enjoyable as listening to him.
Only Ralph Mooney was as good as Buddy. They were in a league of their own.
I put Dickey Overby and Larry Sasser in a class with Buddy.
My favorite Buddy solo. It tears me up watching him twist to push the C pedal.
How about Lloyd Green?
I agree. Classic country had a lot of great "Steelers". One of the best, not as well known is Larry Sasser.
Aw gosh, ET always brings a smile to me. A true treasure and reminds me of my Pops.
Ernest Tubb...Great music...Back when Country really WAS Country!

Drummer is shuffling like it ain't shit...these guys were soo cool. Just starting lap steel. Hopefully I can get the pedal solo close enough on the c6.
+Alvin Martinez Good luck. Don't give it up!
SO TRUE. Keeping that shuffle locked steady with the bass is a heck of a lot harder than it sounds, ain't it? This band is really solid. I like how you can watch the drummer over Tubb's shoulder in some shots and see the concentration in his eyes. That man is a darn CLOCK... just what you need.
How is the lap steel going Alvin??
Well brother your def on the right track with this kind of stuff. I’d say that’s a hell of a start.
Alvin Martinez ernest always kept good talented kids for his troubadours
Ernest Tubb Rocks.
I'm having so much fun listening to this immaculate playjng that I hardly notice how I can't stop sobbing hysterically at how terrifyingly sad it would be were I just driving nails in my coffin. Hug everybody in your life! Hug them now with both hands so they put that god damned hammer down.
Gosh I wish I was there in the good ole days when Hank and Roy were around. My grandpap saw Hank at the grand ole opry in 52. I wish this country music was still in style
It IS
It will never be out of style.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is country music !
It is still in style. It will never go out of style. This is county and Western music at it's finest. It's is such a wonderful privilege to get to listen and watch this performance.
Buddy Emmons , he made steel guitar history and developed the basis of the instrument everyone has used for decades.
I like both kinds of music, country AND western !
The bands reaction to tinker and scale is great. Great 4th wall and just goes to show humans threw out history are probably realer than us.
My sweetheart has gone
And I'm so lonely
She said that she and I were through
So I started out drinkin' for past time
Drivin' nails in my coffin over you
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Everytime I drink a bottle of booze
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin, Lord
I'm drivin' those nails over you
Now ever since the day
That we've parted
I've been so sad and so blue
I'm always thinking of you love
And I just can't quit
Drinking that old booze
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Now you've turned me down
You don't want me
There's nothing now I can lose
I'm just drivin' those nails in my coffin
And worryin' my darlin' over you
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
This band is so good I get so hyped listening to this
I keep returning to observe such a great live performance..in all ways
ahhh i love that voice man
I recall the Ernest Tubb show from an eastern Iowa station, likely KWWL-TV.
Este Ernest Tubb, es el papá de los pollitos... nadie tuvo un banda como él la tuvo, puro músico de alto nivel...
Now that's some rocking country music. ! Rock on !
i am just 'discovering' ole Ernie !!! He was great !!!! thanks for posting.
One of my fav artists to have on shuffle while I wrench my volvos
That drummer is so good doesn't even look like hes having to try.
Ernest Tubb what DYNAMITE!!!!
