Hear a lot of Allen in that Mike. You're a great player and person

1982 was the first year we (Redwing) did bluegrass festival sound. We spent 10 days in Beanblossom. Good to hear that the audio stands the test of time. Not too bad. Sounding great Mike!!!

Wow! My uncle met him. He actually used to come to my uncle's school when he was little. He loved his music. This past year, i received a gospel cd for my birthday of Carl Story & man im loving it! Thanks for sharing Mike! 😀

Really good enjoyed it. Earl would be proud.

Great pic and praise the Lord keep up the good work I believe Gabriel will have a five string when he calls us home

Very cool video shots to accompany that great tune, thanks Mike.

Praise God! 🙏

Banjo builder?

I am praying for God's arms of love to wrap around the family & friends of Miss Nellie!!!!!!! What a wonderful service & memorial for a woman who was obviously sweet, kind, loving & a wonderful person!!!!!!! The spirit felt in both the service & memorial is a great testimony to the love she surely must have carried in her heart!!!!!!! The music overwhelmed me with such a peace that I forgot I was watching via a computer screen!!!!!!! It was a feeling I haven't felt for quite some time!!!!!!! Truly a great blessing!!!!!!! Thank You!!!!!!!

So sorry for your loss Mike. I know you all take comfort in that eternal reunion to come. Prayers for you and your entire family. 🙏

I am so very sorry for your loss, Mike. Prayers for God's peace, comfort & understanding to go forward with all the family & friends!!!!!!! What a beautiful service as a testimony for the legacy Miss Nellie left!!!!!!! I believe I could sit & listen to that preacher singing or preaching all day long!!!!!!! His singing is so familiar.......like I know him in my mind, but from where? I feel like I've played some places with him & he used to have a group that traveled around singing. I don't know. Maybe, I played some churches with him back when I was with The Daltons.

We love you Nellie may you be forever in the arms of Jesus with Virgil.

That is so beyond heartbreaking. May God bless you in this very difficult time and may God bless Nellie June.

Fantastic playing!

Mike killin it!!

Lovely music. Paying special attention to the banjo coz I’m learning it. Thanks.

@Mike Scott Brenda.....................It is such a blessing that among such circumstances, you are willing to share your story & give a message of hope & love to others!!!!!!! You are a dangerous threat to satan in both your testimony & the music you have shared with the world!!!!!!! The devil can NEVER silence that!!!!!!! I've only been around you Mike & Judy one time, several years ago at a gospel event for the Ernest Tubb record shop. I was so blessed by the song & wonderfully blended harmonies, I was compelled to come over, just sit down & listen!!!!!!! There was such a feeling of love & kindness that just seemed to radiate from the 3 of you. You ALL made my day by just allowing me to be around you & sharing that blessing with me!!!!!!! I know your family & everyone you come in contact with, also knows & feels that as well. I will be praying for you & I know countless others will be as well. I'm reminded of my great uncle who gave me my 1st guitar. (1946 D-18) He told me to learn Romans 8:28 & although I foolishly traded the guitar to a banjo, that bible verse has stayed with me for nearly 30 yrs now. @0:14 Is that David in the checkered shirt with the hat on. I would love to see him, pick & sing some with him again. I've only seen him a time or two since I played for him & Joe. I had his cell number, but I've lost it. We had been talking about him coming down to KY & doing some recording. Now, I've got my own digital home studio & I can make that happen much easier. If you hear from him, please tell him that "Hacksaw" misses him & wants to talk to him!!!!!!!

Thank you for this courageous and powerful message amid your fears and worries. Praying for you and Mike and the mental well being of your entire family through all of this. Jay Jerisek (friend of Mike and former Dobro player )

awesome

Wow. Awesome

Miss you cuzzzz always loved your music

Truly beautiful arrangement

That is awesome 👍

Haunting… but good!

Superb pickin' Thanks for sharing that little gem.

Thanks for the lesson Mike!

Very nice!!!!!!! The vocals & music are excellent!!!!!!! Drives like a freight train!!!!!!!

Awesome...2 things: 1. I didn't know banjo players could sing 👍👍👍👍👍 2. Mullets (aka the "Camaro Cut) are making a comeback...AWESOME 👍👍👍👍👍

These Chinese mandos are strange to me. There isn’t a lot of used ones out there (except the older models with the big necks, that need fret jobs and set up), and the new ones are all on back order. Demos in the KZbin world don’t compare them to anything as far as A/Bing them with the 600 or similar models and don’t talk about the weird no tone bar construction. In all honesty the sound demos I’ve heard are quite lackluster. Looking forward to trying one someday.

Super. Video 1

happy birthday!

Hi Mike, Ich had the pleasure to play on stage at the Maggie Valley Opry House with Carl and Danny in the 90s.Me being a mandolin player who admires the Monroe style and being a member of Germany's Bluegrass Gospel band Sacred Sounds of Grass You can imagine what a treat that was for me!

Loving this! Can you tell me who the guys are singing with Carl Story please. We saw a youtube video where they are singing at the Waterloo village. Then we found this one. Thank you for sharing. I figured it out...... My Mother started listening to Carl Story when she was 7 on the radio. She lived in Lancaster Texas. Mom now has some of his records albums and cds. About 5 years ago she found an address (p.o.box) and sent a letter to see if there were any dvds of Carl Story (I figured mom would get the letter back) however Mom received a letter from Carl's wife Helen Story and Helen sent moms couple of dvds they have been friends now for over 5 years. Mom is 82 and watches the KZbin videos of Carl Story and we found this one and Mom says Thank You for sharing this video. You're awesome too.

A real treasure! Thanks for bringing it out Mike.

Awesome 👍

Perfection.

Good picking. That banjo is a monster.

Bobby Thompson would be proud!

Excellence!!

Sweet!

Great banjo

Perfect!

Great picking. Smooth and clean.

Cool

I watched this on our local PBS channel back then. (And I actually recorded this show on VHS). It was in 1984 my wife and I saw you at the McLain Family Band Festival in Berea, KY with Jim and Jesse, Allen was playing the 5 string dobro. After one of your sets I got to meet you, and you also introduced me to Allen. He showed me a lick I was having trouble with in his tune "Bending the Strings", playing my Fender Concert Tone and I got to play his dobro. A highlight for a guy like me to meet you both. Thanks for the memory!

Do you have the full Austin City Limits "Legends of Bluegrass" episode from 1986? It has the Austin City Limits intro with "London Homesick Blues".

great stuff buddy

Amen brother!

Amen brother!

I just have a feeling you make any banjo sound awesome 👍👍
