This is the first song I learned on the banjo. It really isn’t as hard as people make it out to be, ofc no one beats the precious sound of Earl’s picking

Shame the way he passed away.

One of the good uns.

The greatest

It doesn't get any better than thiis!!!!!!!!!!!❤

Ik kies weer het ruime sop en dit luister ik als ik de haven in vaar. Leuk als de kinderen van de brug springen en de zon schijnt.

This clip is history. Thank you for posting it.

A giant of a man; physically, mentally and politically.

Simply Beautiful Songs 🇺🇲❤️🙏

Lester did a wonderful job on this song. If there is any singing in heaven, Lester F latter will be singing lead

Marvellous song.

dang, never seen this one. thank you

For the time period, this was pretty good pronunciation.

Too fast. Slow it down and let us dwell on the words.

Martha White was all we ever used back home in Tennessee back in the 1950’ and 60’s.

Anyone know where this was recorded?

I so much wanted to hear him play and sing the whole song, out on the porch. And maybe then, we could hear him talk about it.

Happy birthday Maggie x

SNORK. I suppose if we make it a cautionary tale it's allowable ????

Thanks a lot, Joe!

Timeless. 4:29

Jolly song.

Fantastic

Absolutely brilliant you guys ... love this

This must rank as one of the best country songs ever written.

They are Marvelous....Pete is incomparable....He was such a wonderful entertainer/man

Odd that almost no-one in 16 years (it's December 2024) has commented that this was a song by Michael Flanders (lyrics) and Donald Swann (music), from their stage revue "At the Drop of a Hat" in the UK in the late fifties. It was a raging hit at the time, and their performance (Flanders did the singing) was considerably more restrained - and therefore more deliciously sleazy.

So glad to find this video! Mr. Beverly Harmon, from Are You Being Served? brought me here. I found some KZbin videos of other songs Mr. Harmon liked: "Friends", sung here by Dinah Shore and Bing Crosby: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHnPqXidpLCSZpY (it's the first song on the video; they sing other songs after that), and "If I Ruled the World" sung here by Tony Bennett: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZW8dWyapLGsnas (Mr. Harmon took some liberties with the lyrics and the tempo).

Absolutely beautiful ❤❤

When yer lost in the rain ... In juarez mexico O

My dad shot this for echoes of America. Lovely to see

This is the only time I've ever heard someone cover this song and it not sound stupid.. lol great cover

The cello is absolutely the best instrument to accompany this tune. Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing!

The first harmonica blues I heard in 1966 (I was 16 years young) and it blew me away! Since then there has been one type of music for me above all others: blues! - Rythm&Blues and blues rock came along shortly afterwards. But I still think that good old classic folk blues is the best.

Is there a version of this in english?

❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉 2024

I apologize I’m not in the mind frame

Difference is a secrete

I may be little and small but I can’t tell Al the big guys what to do either even though it’s to help

They started clapping on the wrong beat lol but it corrected itself.

I’m so sad to found this absolute legend this late in life… but at least I found him. Love the lyrics and the way he can make you feel that’s something he really experienced himself. We really won’t see or hear music like this anymore. Big love and respekt

arlo who?

Love it. I love Bluegrass Gospel ❤❤

Im thinkin we didnt really deservr Pete.
