[@marikiley2636]

These two young men make the best combination of voices and music. Niether one tries to outshine the other but, instead, they lend to each others unique sound. Why they don't have more reconition than they do is beyong my comprehension. Clearly they have earned, and should be, on their own tour. While Carson McKee can stand on his own talents without fail, as well as Josh Turner can, it is when they are together that the very best of both talents really shine and ring out clear enough to be heard as pure gold.

[@shannonengland5548]

That was so well put. These two make me smile and warm my heart.

[@deadbeetz9553]

[@rollanrand]

I've been watching Josh for 10 years and Carson was with him way back as young teens making music....I imagine they go back much farther than that as life long friends. Amazing talents both of them.

[@danorion369]

what do you mean they don't have more recognition? Their videos are always viral and there are a crap ton of likes and views on this video @Mari. I think it's our self desire for external acknowledgement that gets us in trouble. These guys could just be playing for good present moment fun and having the blessings of their talents to entertain others like us. Is that not enough? All in all, I get you, they're fun as heck to watch, even compared to the ones that "seems to have more acknowledgement." I know we've all been conditioned to compare and judge but trust that it's not necessary to be better than anyone or fully acknowledge to realize that your self worth is... awesome. It has to start with you. =) I say this because I noticed you got 273 likes for this which tells me that a lot of people also are dying for acknowledgements and are spreading out that same energy that we need acknowledgement to feel "enough" about ourselves. Fuck that. You are more than enough; you too are a product of magic mah dude and dudettes.

[@manicswar8321]

@@danorion369 just be quiet.

[@andrewmcp7563]

I think I'm addicted to this performance. If anyone ever feels disillusioned with their guitar playing, they should be prescribed this video. It'll probably make them a bit more depressed about their own abilities (or maybe that's just me!) but it will always, always reconnect them with the pure joy of being able to play something halfway competently. My version doesn't sound half as good (or even a quarter) but every time I sing it, this performance accompanies me in the back of my head. And we sound glorious together! Cheers boys, you make me jealous of your youth and talent, but enthused, grateful and overjoyed at the same time!

[@alildaisy2180]

I’m a beginner-intermediate guitarist, and I was wondering what you meant by “chugging”. I do agree that the strong dirty bass line is what gives this such a distinctive and powerful sound, I just wonder what that word meant.

[@unpersonableme1805]

@@alildaisy2180 ​ ask and you will receive. It paints the picture of a train rolling over tracks. Not a technical term. Listen to the guitar on the right from 2:00 to 2:04. The rythm/beat puffs out like a train puffing out steam. The taps of the fast down strums throughout the song reminds me of metal wheels clicking over track sections. The "bouncy" hammering on the 2nd string 2nd fret that starts around 0:16 makes me picture the connecting rod on the wheels of the train throwing itself around.

Sincere thanks for pointing out things those of us who don't have the music gene (but are grateful to have the musical "Appreciation" gene!) will certainly miss. I also love that there are no in-ear devices, and that Josh, who has the quieter voice, can carry a decent tune in a great variety of ranges, and sing harmonies and "back up" which I always thought was a lot more difficult. But, imho, both of these young men are spectacular talents. Love them both (and all when the case warrants - Josh doesn't hang out with any musical slouches 😉).

I love it when these guys kinda lose it in the end. Goes to show that they are havin' a really good time doin' what they do. These boys are so frickin talented it's almost scary. I don't think I've run acrossed a Josh Turner vid that I didn't like. What amazise me is the depth and volume of music that these guys are capable of. Josh (and company) can do anything from classical and jazz to old 50's standards, folk and pop (the Frankie Vallie montage is a knockout!) from the 60's, his take on classic songs from the 70's, and then throw down their own original tunes (some written by Carson McKee) like "If I was A Fool" and "The Levee". These boys are just fantastic, in my humble opinion.

[@mediamannaman]

Methinks they may be sipping something that loosens them up. (2:54)

[@Maddog-um5yk]

Every time I watch this it picks me right up. Aside from the outstanding musicianship, I love the way Carson sings out of the side of his mouth and has that little smile on his face when he sings the "I shot a man in Reno" line.

[@joetooserious583]

My wife & I saw Josh & Carson do this tune as the set closer at The City Winery Loft last night (8/26/22) and they out and out CRUSHED IT. The crowd was cheering loudly for EVERY SONG from soup to nuts, but Folsom Prison in particular brought the house down. Crowd singing and a standing O before they came out and did Angelina for an encore. My only wish on the night: I was hoping the boys would back off the mics and let the audience sing the last chorus of FPB on our own. It might have been special. Great job guys!!!!
