That's beautiful

In prison or on parole, he's a no good slubberdegullion that robbed the world of a great treasure. Because of greed and ignorance. Too lazy to earn money themselves and no gifts or talents to offer or that anyone would ever want. I was only 4 years old when Strihgbean and Estelle was killed, but i remember that it was a time of loss and mourning.

If this is the worst thing that can happen to you, you need to count your blessings. If they were there all day and all night, that would be an actual problem.

In this song, you say there was money found in his fire place? Is that true? And if so, I hope his family got it. Rest in peace dear ones 🌹 🌹

To add to the crime was letting Mr Brown out of Prison. He should have NEVER been let out

This was one of the saddest thing that ever happened in my lifetime.😢

They actually did auction off Stringbean's overalls.

Profound sadness overtook me the morning that I learned of Stringbean and Estelle's murder. The Ballard of Stringbean and Estell makes my eyes water every time I hear it. Less we forget.

Thank you for this. They sure deserved better. 💔

Beautiful...

50 years next month…rest in peace String&Estelle 😢

I didn't know Verlon was a banjo player. He's one of my all time favorites.

Long live String. I just don't understand why people do cruel deeds, and take what isn't theirs to possess.

Too bad the death penalty was not an option. The pair would have been in Hell 50 years by now.

That was a sad day…

Amazing! R.I.P. David and Estell

Very well made video.

Love this true story

This. Guy. Can. Sing. And. Play. Too so so. Sad

It's such a sad story. Thank you for sharing.

Those bars have a profound effect on the soul of a man or woman.

Who. Ser. Them. Up

Check out Otis Gibbs channel, they have an account of all what happened to Mr. & Mrs. Akeman that night when they returned home from the Opry show...Sad Story

They did more than rob the family of Stringbean an Estell. they robbed the world of that great banjo music.

Great video! What a horrible day when we got the news. There was a nice tribute by Grandpa Jones from HeeHaw on here but it’s been taken down. Too bad. Sad video but should’ve been left on.

RIP Stringbean & Estelle. I remember when he was first on Lester & Earl's show, man that get up and eyebrows.

after the killer was set free from Hank3 kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5jPXpKugtSVask

Great song. Sam Bush put it on an album also. Love this version.

Awful incident, makes me cry, such a waste. Greed is a devil, strong men will deny. I'm disappointed every time.

i like u

When I was a kid growing up I'd listen to String bean on Her Has and I loved to hear him pick the banjo and sing. I never knew what happened to him until I saw this video, and it chocked me up. String bean was a good old man and he nor his wife deserved what they got. But it was immortalized in this song and will not be forgotten. Rest In Peace String bean and Estelle. At least you won't be feeling anymore pain and you're together with your loved one. God needed a banjo player in heaven but the Great Almighty couldn't separate you from Estelle so God took you together. You're sorely missed but remembered.

He was granted probation after 40 years .

Who is the guy singing Love it

Still relevant.....and funny in 2022 🤣

I’d love to run into that SOB brown … 🤬😡

i was 9 years old when this happened. Loved Stringbean. RIP to Stringbean and Estelle. Hee Haw was a favorite show in California.

That SOB finally got paroled.

As a God fearing loving Christian he deserves a second chance as we all do. He admits what he did, and takes responsibility for it. He doesn't ask us to forgive him. Maybe God and Christ will. Remember, Judge not lest ye will be judged.

I pray for us. Please pray for me. Mine is the only no blow for miles. This neighborhood is bullied by the yard guild. But a hose with a good nozzle, (not like mine here), does a better job, keeps dirt on the ground, and waters trees that could always use some more water than stingy people give them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i33Tf5qMeK19adk

I am the second cousin to StringBean. I cry fro the bottom of soul everytime I listen to this ballad! If you saw my Uncle Jesse who was his first cousin you would think they were twins!

They should have had no mercy on the brown boy .. he intentionally took 2 lives and I pray that haunts him every day he lives, morning, noon and night .. til the day he dies These were my neighbors in the community I grew up in and they certainly deserved thier life

Murderer hopes some good can come out of String beans murder😳🤪 putting on a good act👺

Some "benefit" to society ‼️🤮🤮 unbelievable 😡

I just saw this. I really enjoy the music of Vernon Thompson and Guy Clark.

If she begged for her life why she didn't tell them where the money was.

Doesn't seem right playing 3 finger while singing about Stringbean.

Awesome. So sad

Right down the road from me... Damned shame...

Great ballad!! I have 2cd's by String bean! 🤠
