I used to call this "J D Crowe & The Magic Band." Even the way they moved on stage was amazing. What a privilege to have seen them many times.

[@randallprime5202]

I think this group of musicians at this point in there lives were supposed to be playing together and did some of there best work !!! This was The New Souths best line up in my opinion , can still get chills listening to there work together sometimes .

[@drussthelegend3919]

I agree

[@blakehymer424]

Best for any genre any time period ever

[@Bascomblodge]

JD. Super Man. Great great banjo player, band leader, innovator, selector of songs. What a contribution he has made to all our lives. And a gentleman too boot.

[@3061535]

Greatest Bluegrass Band of all time! The talent in that band was simply beyond belief and they were just approaching their prime. Tony Rice had the perfect voice for this music....just so pure and yet so earthy. It resonated of Kentucky music of forty years ago.

[@sueharrison3200]

I just discovered this and am in awe. It's been covered by many artists, but this version is my favorite. ugh beautiful poet imagery, tim you get to the last line, which is chilling. One of the greatest songs and covers ever.

[@PreWar1934]

The 0044 album changed my life the first time I heard it. If I ever feel I'm getting bored of playing music I just give it a listen and it totally re energizes me. Best band of all time.

[@claudejulien4850]

Although the sound is horrible, it's still my favorite version

[@anderjohmetallica]

I heard this song at a bluegrass jam. Wow. The lyrics just blew me away. Whoever wrote this song felt some real heartache.

[@JudgeSturdy]

Bruce "Utah" Phillips

[@kevinmoyer6224]

Im privileged to have met everyone on that stage

[@Bo_134]

I’m really jealous

[@steveroberts8719]

One of the classic songs. Written by U. Utah Phillips, Golden Voice of the Great Southwest, itinerant, member of the IWW, the most most feared and vigilant union in American history and is actually very much alive. I always hoped that Phillips got his due share of royalties from all the musicians who sang and recorded this song.

[@lindafields4613]

This is just simply perfection and soul satisfying. I am so glad I heard them in person; I am a fortunate person.

[@farmerbob3007]

I'd rather see video of these great musicians playing than still photos.

[@claudejulien7700]

Wonderful playing of Jerry D.

[@cyedrysek]

Such an amazing abundance of talent!

[@RTRDick]

I asked both Glen Lawson and J D around the time, who played the fantastic opening licks on guitar. Glen who wasn't there said probably Crowe and JD said he didn't remember, no doubt being modest. This indicates it was JD of course, but that he used finder picks out of E is a surprise. Thanks so much for posting, solving a 35 year old riddle.

[@mrrhum3311]

Surely the sweetest veraion of this song.

[@jayrice1371]

It doesn't get any better!

[@LawrencePetersonMusic]

absolutely Lovely!!!!!!

[@tippimail1]

0044 is one of the best bluegrass albums of all time.

[@donkristinnson4201]

One of my favourite versions of this song is sung by Willy Watson !

[@RUNNOFT71]

I can't believe how amazing this is.

[@wideawakenotwoke6178]

Fantastic so lonesome perfection! We miss you Tony and JD ❤️

[@mrrhum3311]

We were such kids back then. But that hair!

[@justinianmullins4572]

[@Mudcat50]

Just think of the legends in that one band!

[@jnholland006]

[@georgewashington6225]

Lol this never gets old

[@bigredridinhood]

Thank you for posting!

[@kydave79]

JD is actually the one that kicked off Rock Salt and Nails on the 0044 album.

[@ttice5068]

I thought Young recorded his version in 1969?

[@ervinchafin334]

flat and Scruggs,in 1966 put it out I was in a blue Grass band,we did it 100s of times back then.

[@phatboyzband831]

Written 1961, by folk singer Utah Phillips Bruce Phillips, he also recorded it...secondhandsongs.com/work/34669

[@haroldarmstrong8285]

[@ClemDogg2]

[@donaldhines4797]

Shame they only recorded one album while they were together. Has to be one of the best groups that ever performed.

[@kydave79]

[@jeffgarrett2114]

I remember hearing this on 8 track

[@ronsommers8814]
