Carson Peters and Ricky Skaggs - "Blue Moon of Kentucky" ( Live at the Grand Ole Opry )

I had to remove a couple of minutes of this due to all the banter before the music started.

[@jimwilliams133]

Makes me cry happy tears that real country lives on thru todays youth.

As a Southern Appalachian boy from Southern Virginia, the REAL VIRGINIA, my Kentucky neighbors must be PROUD!! God bless this young man, and "KEEP FIDDLING"!!

[@City-Bisquits]

What an honor to get to play fiddle and center stage with Ricky Skaggs..........Nothing shy or amateur about that little boy.......he's going places!

[@RoachDogg_JR]

Bro he got up there with Skaggs and then proceeded to nail it. That kid has guts.

[@friendoftellus5741]

In my opinion this is the very best version of this melody !!! 😊😊😊

[@capoppy3612]

And at the Grand Ole Opry!

[@julieclifford7698]

Thx.. was remembering this and forgot who he was playing with.. xo

[@genevestal9740]

Ricky taught this highly talented youngster that the difference between a violin and fiddle was that a violin has strings while a fiddle has straaaangs.

[@philhand5830]

yesss!!! straangs!!!.....and played HOT!!!

[@user-sx9lx6gv3d]

Great song

[@t-man5606]

You ever just hear a song so good it brings a tear to your eye? Not because it’s sad or anything, but just because it’s so damn good.

[@shanaanderson3290]

Plus the chills/goosebumps.

Nice to see a young kid who enjoys real country music!!!!

[@kylepope1186]

I love how he goes from holding that last note straight into sawing like a madman. What a showman.

[@PAULEPT]

OMG, WHAT A TALENTED AND GIFTED LITTLE FELLOW YOU ARE. You indeed brought tears of joys to my heart.I hope your parents realize just how special you are.

[@jerrymorris7658]

This young man has done an exceptional job being in front of an audience. He definitely has the talent to become a future recording artist. My hats off to you Carson, keep up the good job!

Carson Peters and Iron Mountain have CDs out.

[@estelleadamski308]

On my dad's side BOTH his mom & dad's families hail from KY. So I consider myself a True Proud Hillbilly as my roots lie here. But I was raised in CA, and born in KS. You can see Ricky is proud of Carson! So much talent! Great Bluegrass song!

[@greysquirrel3924]

Just watched a seven year old Ricky Scaggs pickin’ with Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, in another video on KZbin. It brought me here. Great to hear and watch. May the circle never be broken.

[@Spencer-vq7se]

This gives me the chills... There is a video out there of Young Ricky Skaggs playing with flatt & scruggs for the first time when he was right around this kids age..... kid even looks like him too. Watching these 2 videos is like watching the torch being metaphorically passed through 2 generations..... all recorded for us to see on youtube, truly amazing.

[@flautalee3090]

Wonderful performance! This young man has a bright future!

[@williamsroberto6598]

What a beautiful song I love this! how are you flautalee?

That little man can sing his little heart out I've heard many people sing this song in my lifetime and he is my favorite 👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@pauljessome5718]

Love you Ricky. Remembering when you were introduced as a young boy entertainer. You look happy. Paul in Canada

[@pookied.7738]

The fact that this kid got to sing along side Ricky Skaggs (the man is a legend) is an experience in itself but he's also singing at the grand Ol Opry and to get a standing ovation on top of that. Most ppl only dream of this.

He has crazy mad skills when it comes to playing the fiddle like nobody's business.. Great job young man!!

As a 37 year old that grew up on Bill Monroe. I've watched this video more times than I can count. I can't get over the way that young man did the best job of doing this song. A reincarnation may I say.

The best thing about this is that Ricky was given the same opportunity when he was 7 with Flatt & Scruggs
