I think about this so often, Nick would love how so many folks are doing these days, he'd be so damn proud. It makes me bitterhappy because I want to know where life would have led him and Shannon, together. So much has changed and evolved since he left us. Mostly for the good, though.
My baby sister got this clip on her phone. If I'd known it was the last time we'd see him alive I would have got my video camera from the car. We were truly blessed to have stumbled across Benjamin that day, and had a few hours to listen to them play. You're welcome, friend.
this is really great, I'm thankful for the people who recognize the talent these two possess, and took the time to film them doing their thing in their prime. Benjamin and Nicholas are such an inspiration to me. I wonder if Ben and Ashley know this exists or have any more videos like it.
This is truly the best recording of this song. Benjamin Tod and Nicholas Ridout were an amazing duo. Too bad the time has passed to see them play together live.
I have been listening to Ben's music for a few years now and have always loved his cover of the song. I had wished to have heard Nicholas sing it but chalked it up to " it'd have been nice but oh well." It takes quite a bit for me to cry, but seeing the two of them busking together with this song that has always haunted me... I had to get a bottle down and just listen...
YES! I knew Nick wrote this. Didn’t think I’d ever get to hear him sing it. Great stuff! Any band to do with Nick and Ben will always be my number one 👌 RIP sir.
In case this slipped anyone by, Nicholas' widow, Shannon Jae Ridout has had an old album that never was finished, get finished, it was recorded in 2010 and is available for a listen and as a digital download on BandCamp. 16 tracks, Cryin' through the Bottle
Thanks so much! I’ve heard Ben mention Nicholas more than a few times and I’ve only ever heard Lazy Moonshiner so I’m trying to check out more of his body of work. What a damn great talent, so so sorry he left this plane of existence at such a young age.
This is pure gold Nickolas would be happy with where Ben is at

This is more valuable than gold
Sure is
Absolute gold. So lucky to have this footage. Thanks.
holy crap man! I've looked everywhere for a video of Nicholas singing this!
All I ever think is where he'd be with the rest of them today.
Hurts my heart and soul.
Wow, damn, they were good together. Those harmonies, that banjo. It's heaven
RIP Nicholas Ridout
