[@kristisweeten7625]

[@maureenmartin2327]

Thank you Marty. Love that song. It never gets old.

[@egyptianswamp6041]

That is a powerful rendition of a heart-rending song. Fantastic, Marty.

[@stephenbouchelle7706]

I enjoy seeing a virtuoso picker just strum through a song sometimes.

[@Y3MINEM]

One of the best goddamn renditions I’ve ever heard.

[@chuckokelley2448]

I agree with marty always loved that third verse but seldom heard it

[@charlesjensen7678]

Such a touching interpretation of the Merle Travis classic. Big Smiles. CMJ #anabundantlife

[@howardmonro937]

[@thebluntandonly]

Great job ;) Kentucky native here

[@BoulderCreekSteve]

WGAF where you are from? Did someone say something to make you think anyone gives a rat’s ass?

[@hankwhitley222]

The coolest cat in town! I love this soooo much! The Cave version on PBS brought me here.

[@pigmeattwo]

There is one verse that talks about diamond mines in South Africa. I am sorry Marty missed that one.

[@walterkersting1362]

Excellent!

[@diannemcnaughton1907]

there is no one like Marty Stuart

[@bearclaw007]

Hot damn, my man. 👍🍻

[@jimparker7778]

Marty is a treat! He slaps his guitar and knocks a string out of tune which gives him a "present" moment and he grins.

[@chocothemagnificent1019]

Very Charismatic

[@TimBoykinGuitar]

Marty Stuart is a good’un

[@williampalmer6296]

Anyone know what model Martin guitar Marty is playing?

[@gotahvcls]

Thank you Marty. The often unused verse were new to me. Dark as a Dungeon is one of my favorite stories. For conversation, anyone know the pen who wrote this?

[@bobbyhill7586]

Merle Travis

[@CarterCountyCruisers]

This came from a documentary about Merle Travis. If you ever get a chance, watch it.

[@jennifursun3303]

is there anymore to this program?

[@tedpeterson6999]

This is super cool, tho wondering if he had to smoke a few packs of ciggies to get the vocals just so?

[@tribulationcoming]

What to do with fifty some original gospel songs and not place to sing them. Put them all on this tube thing.

[@37BopCity]

He's not a great singer, but a great guitarist and country entertainer. He also deserves great credit for keeping the golden years of country alive, and not giving in to the modern crap that dominates the industry today.

[@jamesraymondsmith]

I have a job in a good country rock band, sing a couple tunes, people say I sound good on some things, play guitar mostly. I wish that I had the vocal skills this fine gentleman has.

[@alanmaclean92]

You must be deaf mate or no taste .

[@darrellblanchard2362]

Sounds like something Townes Vanzant would write.

[@Y3MINEM]

But Merle Travis did. So...

[@celestesmith7985]

Look at that old scratched up guitar. It will not even stay in tune when he slaps it.

[@lindanorris2455]

He looks very, very ill?
