[@XJ1100J]

Loved them at the festivals back then.

[@kapacon]

Damn, this is so heartfelt and honest, incredibly powerful!

[@MsLowereastside]

This is my favorite J&J song -- Jesse is my brother in law, and I'm delighted to say that he is turning 83 this month, and still going strong, though Jim left us in 2000, sadly.

[@buckylamb8674]

But if you are Jesse's sister in law then you will definitely know please please please get back with me on this it would .mean so much to me

[@Copperhead1987]

Jesse was one of my dad good friends

[@kpfromkocs]

I really like these boys a lot. They are some of the best that ever was. This song is new to me. They are such a great talent, and with so many songs, it's like you're always finding "new" ones, even though they're old recordings. Phenomenal stuff! :-)

[@billbrown8006]

Grate song love it

[@murphy6700]

Wow, great guitar playing by Jesse even though he's known as a smokin' mandolin player.

[@banjobgboy]

This song always has reminded me of home...... One of my all time favorites

[@charleswinkler9028]

I have the same memories. Brings a tear to my eye every time. Beautiful song !

[@kiandye]

This is the best!

[@milliesboy666]

I used to hear the studio version on WPKN in the 70's. All the long-haired hippies loved it.

[@parkermoore4483]

Solid, son. They're underrated in regards to their innovation and progressiveness. Listen to that guitar intro. Bill Monroe wouldn't have had that. Traditionalists need to expand their tastes a little. Jim and Jesse are often only remembered for songs like "Are You Missing Me". It's kind of a shame.

WOW--I never heard Jesse play lead guitar before!! FANTASTIC!!

[@buckylamb8674]

Surprise surprised you still ain't hured Jessy play lead guitar

[@buckylamb8674]

Jim plays lead on this song

[@tie_dye_cowboy]

​@@buckylamb8674Sorry but it is you who has them mixed up. Jesse is 100% for sure playing lead guitar on this instead of mandolin. A simple Google search of the name "Jesse McReynolds" will show you which one he is. Have a nice day.

[@jeffjeeves6337]

Great song,nice crosspickin'!

[@buckylamb8674]

These guy's are phenomenal jim McReynolds could put Chet Atkins to shame any day of the week and his brother jessie can hang with any of the greatest tenors that ever lived

[@mandobanjoguitar]

Think you got the names mixed up Jesse is the cross picker

[@briartlaw]

@FlyingTiger64 Well put i agree..

[@mandolin8297]

I don't care much for the sound of cross-picking -- one banjo per band is plenty! -- just as I don't care for mandolinists who emulate single-string guitar flatpicking. But cross-picking certainly works for much of J&J's material. I really love Jim's tenor and wish he had done more lead work. Their trios easily rival the Osbornes, and J&J did exquisite renditions of Louvin material. I guess they've never been my favorites because I found their music too upbeat and cheerful whereas I was drawn to bluegrass because of the angst, the high lonesome sound of Monroe and the appalachian grief of the Stanleys.

[@mandolinman2006]

Strangely, his original main instrument was guitar while Jim played mandolin.

[@buckylamb8674]

Yeah you know jim was the man they called mr mandolin

[@murphy6700]

Jesse is just an amazing mandolin player, but a great guitarist. Nice picking.
