Kenny Vaughan/Guitar/Vocals - Johnny G. d'Artenay/Bass/Vocals - Jimmy Lester/Drums @Robert's Western World, Broadway, Nashville, Tn. - Sunday 10. June 2012
During covid we cancelled our tickets to Marty Stuart, I was not that knowledgable of Marty and Kenny Vaughan. I was impressed by Marty in the Ken Burns Documentary. Being a rock n roll person I wasn't attuned to the style and grace. Then I started watching you tube videos. There are many days I regret cancelling those tickets. Kenny just pulls you in. He is one of a kind. Simply one of a kind and so is Marty. Thank you for the for the entertainment and also the demeanor. My sincerest best.
I listen to every rendition of Ghost Riders that I come across. I also collect this song. Glen Campbell & Roy Clark, The Ventures, Willy & Johnny with Reggie Young (RIP) also Glen, Roy, Johnny, I'm so glad I got to hear this. I also just made the connection between Kenny here & with Marty Stuart & The Superlatives (I'm from Boston). Kenny is a Virtuoso tele player. Marty Stuart has the creme de la creme of smoking', blazing, tasteful, twangers playing with him.
The world is full of technically gifted pickers whose musical instincts are weak. It's also full of gifted musicians who are technically weak. Kenny Vaughan is that rare combination of gifted tech, gifted musician, with perfect timing. Look at the detail paid to the punchline of this song: at 5:56. That my friend is sound bending at it's very best. AND he's a humble guy!
Just discovered Kenny Vaughan literally listening to the last 90 seconds of someone's song, where he (KV) played the solo. Got instantly hooked. For life. No un-hooking. Will keep looking for all his music, recorded & live. What an awesome musician ❗
Liked Kenny for a long time, now; and it seems like forever that I've admired Marty Stuart(who I first saw on an Opry TV special, with a fabulous Nudie-style suit, playing a sunburst Strat with a SLIDE). His hair was perfect, of course. I remember playing "Ghost Riders" in a beach bar in Panama City Beach in the 1980s, with 2 horn player friends - like an R&B horn section! What a great song, to withstand the love of 70 years of overly enthusiastic musicians and still be a crowd favorite. Great version here. Support your local music scene and beer distributors(and bring along a good designated driver). Fortune passes everywhere.
did take me a long time to realize it was Jimmy Lester from Los Straitjackets! Dammit just love this whole band! And of course master him self Cousin Kenny! Hello from Finland!
As someone who played drums for almost 40 years, I can't say that he's no good, but he could have done so much more. They could have gotten the same thing from a metronome in this one. Of course maybe he was giving the guitar player exactly what he wanted....and he is "the star". I got called to fill in for a sick drummer and the very first thing the guitar player ask me was, "Do you own a pair of brushes?" I did, and ended up playing with them for the next 4 years. 😎

Love this tune -- these guys do the song justice. Excellent 😊
Man I would love to watch this with good audio. Kenny's one of my favorite pickers.

Check out the British guitar group, The Shadows. Great version.

Absolute masters displaying their wares for all to see, feel, and hear…….. this is SOOOOOO cool!
I sat watching this enjoying it as much as Kenny was. Kenny was having a good time and so was I. Thank you Ken.
Cousin Kenny kills on the Tele.
He’s some kind of wizard or something, my favorite guitar player

Just found out who Kenny is today , I’m so fucking glad I did
Fabulous Sandwich I’m in Australia , I doubt I’ll get the chance

Unbelievable talent on the guitar!
Love Kenny Vaughn. Love Robert's. Love Nashville.
Beautiful for sure, a cross between country and jimmy hendrix. Keep an eye on this guy!
JIMI. indeed Kenny is aces.
KV is just simply a magician...
did take me a long time to realize it was Jimmy Lester from Los Straitjackets! Dammit just love this whole band! And of course master him self Cousin Kenny! Hello from Finland!
This is so GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!
So fantastic.
Kenny Vaughan Trio, perfect! that drummer is so good also, what a beat and sound.
And the bass man is laying it down too, plus he sounds like John Cash when he sings…….. but There are no superlatives for the genius of Kenny Vaughn
Holy cripes that man is a visionary. Kenny Vaughn gettin' it on.
Kenny can shred !!! 🤟🤟🤟
Chunkin' the groove like l ain't never heard...& notes like lights
Oh yessss Outstanding!!
If I had just one-third of that talent.....
I would settle for a fourth of that talent.
Wow. His musical instinct is amazing. So much going on here.
Currently one of the best out there!! You go Kenny!!!
Kenny has the feel like SRV did
wouaooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! fabulous!!!! extra!!!! THE SOUND!!!!!!!!
roby, musician from France!!
That was FANTASTIC!!! I am a new fan!
Great to be able to hear those drums over everything else.
Kenny... sounds great! Saw you the other night at Headliners in Louisville.
Rock kenny
kenny can make his gitar sing the vocals.hats off.
This was not a performance, it was a clinic..
The man can flat ass play!
Brilliant, Close your eyes and you'd swear you were listening to Santana or Hendricks!! Kenny absolutely Nails it!
neither one but a combination of both.
Kenny's connection to Earth is those strings, otherwise he would be riding in the sky.
I heard him in a interview saying Bill Frisell was his teacher. Sure was. Great rendition. Oozes technique and talent
??? I know Bill loves Americana but I don't hear any of his influences here.
they ended up in different places as guitarists but both are excellent in their genre
Beautiful!
Uau!Beautiful sound!
Excellent!! Beautifully played...
he revisits the main riff of the song so infrequently but you dont even realize it
chills
Simply superb!!
Cousin Kenny!
Pretty good pickin' right there.......!
Ghost Riders in the Sky With Diamonds...
Outstanding.
Wow!!!!
amazing stuff goin on therr...thanks
I sing this at karaoke.
Mesmerizing
Listen God. I'll go bald for the rest of my life if you will make me play like this!
Great🎸🎵
He plays great as usual, but I like Roy Clark's version on Country Family Reunion on youtube. Check it out!
Ese chololon no se queda atrás, se le para bonito a la guitarra y a la batería no se diga; muy buena versión, felicidades muchachos.
un freaking real
Bravo!
Good job on a real oldie.
Go get it Cuz!
Nice one!
"alright" is right!
Burnin' it to the ground!
Ghostly!
thanks to twangnation
This is a rare moment if musically history where Keith Richards, in disguise, performs with the Kenny Vaughan Trio. Terrific lead guitar player!
Kenny Vaughan needs no help from Richards, however good he may be.
Dayam! Stan Jones would be proud.
anybody know the gal that played with them that night on fiddle, her name?
Ur right there with SRV rig? Righteous tone .teles. rule
What's he using for reverb???
Who is the bass player here? Does he play guitar at Layla's during the week?
Johnny G. d'Artenay
Mary Tyler Moore on guitar!!!…..Or maybe that british lady on the Beverly Hillbillies…..hahaha
Marty over his shoulder.....
Uffaa I hear ya Cornbob -- he's definitely looking like Miss Hathaway here. Oh well, still gotta love his (her?) playing . . . .
+BaBa Booey immature comments from wanna be players
Baba Booey - how old are you? 12, maybe 13. Keep your stupid comments to yourself. Thanks and have a nice evening!
A moronic comment if I’ve ever seen one.
Awsome glad you let your hair down....now play shit we understandsac
They play great but I give it a thumbs down for the sound quality.
It sounds like it was recorded on a cell phone but the video is a bit old for that. I agree with you and would like to hear this done in a studio.
interesting techno-version of the song, but still pale in comparison to the southern rock version by the Outlaws !!!
I love Kenny but the drummer is no good
As someone who played drums for almost 40 years, I can't say that he's no good, but he could have done so much more. They could have gotten the same thing from a metronome in this one.

Cousin Kenny!!
WOW!!!
