JAMMIN WITH SAM - BEAUMONT RAG

[@thereverendsam413]

It blows my mind how much Sam still moves his right hand when he's soloing. It looks like he's still strumming rhythm

[@jamietodd2560]

He said he once closed it in a car door and had to change the way he picked. But it gives his solos so much pulse and punch.

[@jblflatpicker]

Me too.

[@happyhourhero91]

Holy shit Billy. Plucking Beaumont Rag with Ol Sam. Dream come true buddy. Thanks for living the dream for all of us!

[@fonwoolridge]

Love it guys !

[@K131399]

Few living folks are as legendary as Sam and it's about as simple as that. All those shows with Mark, Bela, Tony, Jerry, and all the other monsters who sat in are truly time-capsule performances, all of them.

[@happyhourhero91]

Sam truly is the hero of our generation. Carry that torch brother….

[@kaeleighsmith8324]

Funny how you both make this look so easy! 😊

[@bendummitt888]

Any flashbacks of playing with Don!

[@stephenwolf6135]

hell yeah. I got a good handful of those shows always a blast.

[@hiddenhome4399]

Here is a colab album I'd preorder right now.

[@nixternal]

AHHH I FIGURED IT OUT!!!! The reason my picking sucks on guitar, don't use black fingernail polish. Shoot, would it be bad if I snooped through my daughters stuff to find some? Hrmm, I think I'm too close to boomer to pull it off, nonetheless, 2 of my favorites, loved it!!!!

[@vickvick8556]

[@crazycat1345]

The thing I like about bluegrass is it's easy and sounds great.

[@alan4sure]

It's not that easy to play though. The picking tempo is faster than most genres. Especially rock, folk and country. Melodies and chord progressions are simple though, typically.

[@gam1471]

@@alan4sure Agreed. I'd add that it's what a good player does with those melodies in the way of variations and improvisations that makes it interesting. Different players will for example play Beaumont Rag differently, but the tune's still in there. Also, the rhythm and back-up playing has to be correctly in style. I've sat in jam sessions where someone who hasn't studied the style come in and bashes away thinking they can play bluegrass, when what they're doing is wrong. There's also the singing and vocal harmonies in bluegrass - to me, the most important and emotional aspect of the music. The best singers are incredible!

[@wormwood078]

THEY make it look easy.

[@cameronb76]

Damn

[@cezarbutwyper]

Flipping Elvis of the bluegrass.

[@gerryporter1041]

As the reverend Sam said earlier, sam looks like he’s strumming all the time, watch muted and you would never know he was picking out a killer solo.

[@oldtimetinfoilhatwearer]

Sam plays more instruments than Billy, yet bill got the strings in his name

[@bodinejohnsonmusic]

one person didnt like this....how?

[@merlynschutterle7242]

That must be petty old. Billy doesn't have any tattoos.

[@60beats44]

Hello Sam, I have just taken out an Amazon PRIME membership, mainly to watch your elusive 'The Sam Bush Story' documentary. Turns out that this movie is not supported by the PRIME membership and I am also informed that I am not permitted to watch the movie here in Australia as my VISA card is not linked to an US address. Don't know why you are protecting this film so much or is it just a home movie?

[@kenji3389]

Sam’s mando is loud easily competing a guitar

[@houstonnoble4558]

I like billy but toney rice was the best

[@tcoudi]

after listening to billlys rendition fo thick as a brick, guys, please make some jethro tull together. no standing on one leg required.

[@mikebastiat]

Two communists in one room.

[@oldtimetinfoilhatwearer]

I love finding your comments on bluegrass videos it's like an Easter egg hunt

[@dmcrisp]

Billy’s hair is throwing me off though. I mean Sam’s old, he’s got an excuse, but billy……why…….I mean I guess the lesbian haircut from the 90s is fashionable for men now.
