[@bakters]

This kid is the savior of current music. I'm hardly even joking.

[@elizabethowens8548]

Been listening to Billy Strings all day. Its like my ears opened and i hear in color

[@DroppingColorsTieDyes]

Even better when you can taste it. 😂

[@curtissflamence]

Love how he says " I say". That's twang or whatever it's called

[@ronc1772]

Great

[@ashoknair8993]

One of my favourites real Billy S

[@TorsSongs]

that banjo player sounds awesome! Doc would be pleased!

[@emiller9426]

Agree. Billy ain't so bad either!

[@CorneiliusLibowitz]

BMFF!!

[@zacharykanebronson2549]

Doc would have no reason to be pleased, he would be impressed, maybe slightly envious, depending on his disposition. This is the best cover of the song. Writer unknown and contributor's countless. The song goes back as far as the old country, in folk music, it was ultimately shaped into what it is now in the Appalachian through the 18th ad 19th century and was published as soon as the music industry started in 1911. Doc was late in the game on covers and doesn't hold the rights to being pleased or proud, just saying. Lol

@@zacharykanebronson2549 Good lord dude lol. You take a positive comment and found some way to be pretentious while also sounding like an idiot. Good job?

[@Sos-Hackett]

@@zacharykanebronson2549 someone’s bitter lmao

[@jaykaysr9225]

smooth and silky come to mind

[@Paintbl99]

One of the best renditions

[@marcusaurelius4526]

that voice is just as smooth as country butter

[@songwriteroneill]

Drew Matulich on Mando. He’s a beast on the guitar as well.

[@toddmysak4085]

Now that is a voice

[@Townes.VanZandt]

Awesome. Billy's one of the best things in music currently I say. Thanks for the upload.

[@OldCowboySongs525]

[@pamcm1098]

He just released a new record for you 🙂

[@redmeple]

Verry good

[@rosemadigs]

Awesome!!

[@cind8324]

Omg this is so good ♥

[@siampanoramic]

Billy was quiet anxious at the beginning ! Finally they made it.. so good

[@angelovanoeveren7936]

You knew him from the beginning sir?

[@mr.anonymous5501]

@@angelovanoeveren7936 He meant the beginning of the video, not the beginning of his guitar playing / performing career.

[@angelovanoeveren7936]

@@mr.anonymous5501 still not sure about that 😄

[@chadrobinson9745]

I would be too, it's a difficult, not to mention sacred, little diddly

[@Henry_Martin_Taylor]

Also at the end, the same. I'm not sure, but I think the mandoline stayed on the same chord instead of changing, maybe they wanted to break up the harmony a bit...sounds strange anyway, but not wrong

[@felicerosser5400]

love it!

[@WeAreNotAmused]

The undulating. Of q banjos circular. Picking. Motion is crucial for the sound

[@andrewrai5752]

The Banjo picking is no where as dynamic as in the doc Watson version

[@xkidmidnightx]

clawhammer vs Scruggs style.
