The Byrds & The Earl Scruggs Revue playing Dylan's "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere". If this clip doesn't define country-rock, then I don't know what does. I mean the mighty Clarence White on B-Bender plus the immortal Earl Scruggs on 5-string.....!!!!! Amazing!!!!. If you've never heard of The Earl Scruggs Revue, it was Scruggs' band with his sons in the early 70's. They were (gasp..) a "bunch of longhairs". They made a few great albums back then, most notably Anniversary Vol.1 & Vol. 2 which featured a plethora of guests similar to Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's masterpiece of an album (that may be an understatement) "Will The Circle Be Unbroken". Only here's the twist, instead of a bunch of hippies enlisting bluegrass legends, they were bluegrass legends enlisting hippies. People like McGuin, Loudon Wainwright III, Charlie Daniels, Johnny Cash, Buffy Saint-Marie, & legendary producer Bob Johnston. A highly reccomended album if you enjoy this clip.
Wow! Thanks for sharing. If you have a copy of those Scruggs Revue albums, I'd certainly be grateful if you put them up. I'd love to hear them. Thanks for all your efforts.
All right, this site is not about stealin' music, and it's not about stickin' it to the RIAA. It's about me wanting to get the music I love out there and heard. I've said it many times on here, and the fact that some of the talents I showcase on here are largely unknown is a crime. It's a shame what popular radio & music has become when there are so many great artists out there living in obscurity giving it everything they got.
Really folks, if you like what you hear, support the artists. Buy their albums, go to their shows, tell your friends, whatever you gotta do. Most of these are at crappy bitrates anyway. Truersound@gmail.com
