Alison Krauss and Union Station - Cluck Old Hen

[@treesplease4053]

That old Granada banjo is a weapon, tipping on 100 years now and only getting better, Dan's smiles when Ron took the break, tickled pink. Happy Days ❤❤

[@yoowan3437]

this gets better with every listen

[@venturaleoleo]

Grammy award winning performance!

[@Joe_J-MT_Boy]

Aside from Alison and Dan's vocals, these 5 musicians are 'hot shit' to coil a phrase. Beautifully produced, we get some nice close-ups of the pickin', slidin' and sawin' on that fiddle. What they have is something that AI will never replace... and that's friendship and genuine human feeling behind the drive to be this good. Listening to good Bluegrass like this classic song is like watching swallows in flight.

[@mrtundra1994]

That bass player is keeping them in time!

[@davidklein5007]

I'm listening on my laptop's speakers and I'll have to take your word for thatr.

[@1946nimrod]

That's his job!

[@paulmartin39]

That's what he there for. Rhythm section. Bass & Drums.

[@paulmartin39]

His name is Barry Bales. I saw these live in Cardiff, Wales UK. Mid 90,s. 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@LordoftheOzarks]

The first :45 as everyone notices how tight they sound is pure gold. Dans face is priceless.

[@cece8095]

There is a sentimentality to the sound of this song, I feel. Sounds like home:) 🤍

[@retsdon]

Ron Block is such a great banjo player. And he even looks the archetypal part :))

[@saraleahsands4389]

It doesn't get better than this.. expert musicians all of them.

[@paulmartin39]

They're having a blast. Enjoying every note, phrase etc. Top shelf musicians, Nashville,s Finest. 🙏❤️🎼🎼

[@agoetz64]

What an awesome instrumental! Toe tapping is going on! Texas Two Step Heaven!

[@Grimhilde7]

this tune would go great with a railroad trip aboard a vintage STEAM train through some mountainous region of the central/southern states such as the Smokies......music in time with the big pistons and drivers chuffing along fairly fast...........so many bluegrass tunes that just seem to have been made for railroading.....! thundering around the bend fast and ON TIME......when the engineer blows that whistle,people stop whatever they,re doing for a moment to set their watches and clocks to it........

[@daigo1952]

Not long enough, so I'm playing it again!

[@daigo1952]

Alison reminding us she's more that just a great voice...

[@paulmartin39]

Wow, just incredible playing...I hear a nod to the late, great "King Of Bluegrass", Mr. Jimmy Martin...what a guy. Superb track.

[@terrybeaud9348]

Listening to Ron playing, sounds like there are at least 2 banjos playing.

[@billlabb495]

Happy Birthday Barry 👍👍🎂🎂

[@paulmartin39]

Superb musicians, I saw these live @ The Cardiff Coal Exchange late 80,s. , early 90,s. Brilliant stuff.

[@marcdunn7716]

absolute perfection n that's a fact

[@princeharming8963]

True to the Tune.. and true to the time. Metro-Gnomes, all.

[@dennishavens4274]

Blows me away!

[@Bix12]

[@tylercatlett5359]

William L. I’ve had this song on repeat for 2 months

[@BossySwan]

Brilliant alarm clock music

[@eleonorisabelkongehl9681]

Son Buenisimos. Tocan los Instrumentos en forma Increible¡!!

[@Jrhnhemp]

Can you hear those cbickens squawk and cluck in that fiddle....and the sounds they make when they're layin? Play it again cranked up!

[@drraechristopher]

LOVE BABY THAT'S WHERE IT'S AT

[@lgabriel83]

banjo tabs on my table, NOW!

[@scrimshank1]

Check out Dave Hum banjo on same tune or Mungo Jerry's "In the Summertime". Any style Irish to bluegrass and beyond.

[@nottoomuch87]

I can only imagine how exhausting playing the fiddle is. I can see why she doesn't play as much now that she's older.

[@rev.stephena.cakouros948]

Wow and then some

[@sosclay6655]

Pretty lit.

[@krogge10]

Wow

[@paulfarmer663]

BAN - JO nuff sed

[@MjrMjr-tt3kn]

Nice!

[@greyjackal7221]

This song Absolutely needs to be 8 minutes long...🙃

[@crawfordviolin]

I love this version of this tune. Still working out the licks on it myself...

[@yoowan3437]

Barry Bale timing immaculate

[@Kenttx100]

The dobro made the hen cluck

[@yoowan3437]

0:34 ron and dan, know its good

[@thesilentmajority5539]

Could do with being a bit longer. I could listen to Ron Blocks banjo playing again and again. Reminds me a bit of the late. great Kenny Ingram.

[@finn6612]

What's Chris Pratt doing up there?

[@JohnDuncanAVLFiddler]

[@therubberduck1165]

What is up🤔, its the opposite of down.

[@bearvassar6690]

[@Jrhnhemp]

[@Gballpikker]
