Red Steer

[@ijohnny.]

One of the best "old time" performances I've ever heard. Love Rayna and John. Recording quality excellent.

[@STudio808A]

Thanks!

[@dr1980]

All the musicians are great , but that guitarist definitely elevated the song. wow

[@christaylor2070]

John Doyle is a big name in the world of Irish trad didnt realize he played Appalachian Old Time music too!🙂

[@mesarah011]

Good lord this is magnificent.

[@yukidear8424]

[@Jrhnhemp]

That's a dozy. Love that energy.

[@michaelabrams908]

I feel love!

[@paulajeannet9517]

A great tune and a rousing rendition for sure! Very close to Jeff Goehring's recording. Thanks, y'all!

[@donhendershot9705]

Sounds a lot to me like Chinquapin Hunting. I love it!

[@monicacall7532]

This IS MY music!🎵🎶

[@thefriendsofcoal1152]

Nice guitar style - a little different but it adds drive and excitement to the music and some interesting harmonic twists

[@potaerde]

John Doyle isn't just an average guitarplayer, he's fabulous! Listen to Solas (an American/Irish band where he also plays guitar)

[@ijohnny.]

Yes, he's actually playing through the changes harmonically at times, but it never clashes.

[@Frailerpark]

Wooooahh!!

[@WilliamDavis-lq7to]

I honestly believe I’m responsible for at least 500 of the current views of 65k. One of my favorites!

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

bravi

[@ReverendLangdon]

So Great!!! I wish I had a better view of the guitar player so I could figure out what tuning he is playing in. Do you know?

[@mahopkin1]

Drop D

[@oldthymedragon]

Maybe DADGAD?

[@otryma]

Where can I get a copy of the CD?!

[@stephenslottow3381]

John Herrmann's playing is beautiful, punchy.

[@russellmofsky]

Is this album available? Sounds excellent! Great drive.

[@STudio808A]

sadly, the record never came out. It's a great record though!

[@STudio808A]

It's out now!

[@Time.Space.Heal.]

Yip!

[@asl33py0]

I cannot find this album. Any help? I'll gladly purchase it. The website link no longer works.

[@josephdejarnette5143]

It's available now!

[@sorenkjell2883]

World class!!! Six dislike notes???????

[@jamespeterson5188]

I think it's because of the guitar. People are very particular about how the guitar should play when accompanying old-time. I don't mind it that much, but some would say that this "shredding" style masks the interaction of fiddles and banjo.

[@sorenkjell2883]

I think you may be right here,.but I like it very much. The guitar style gives a rhythmic drive very similar to what you hear in contemporary Irish "string band " music.

[@feetfeetfun]

why would anyone care what others like or don't like?

[@gutbucket260]

It's a fretless/fretted/fretless banjar !!!

[@cowpathmusic]

Short of breath here..

[@samuelwalker9296]

why did the guitar player have to rage

[@tallen1628]

Ugh it ruined it

[@WilliamDavis-lq7to]

This is the absolute best version of Red Steer BECAUSE of the guitar player/double fiddle.

[@evancarawan8781]

Probably drop d

[@virginiaoflaherty2983]

Yikes!

[@stephenslottow3381]

It's a style of guitar playing that's evolved to accompany Irish music, featuring "cross" rhythms chords. I often don't feel it particularly fits Irish fiddling, and it seems even more out of place in Appalachian string band.

[@tallen1628]

I really don't like the guitarist. I love the rest. It's just my opinion though.
