My God, that Molly Tuttle killed that song.

[@JohnDoe-sz3lz]

Holy shit, shes actually playing this in double time here...

[@IdealDanl]

Always magnificent picking from everyone, and obviously Molly, recognized with many awards, but Sully's guitar work strikes awe in me every time. I am so glad he is part of AJL&BS.

[@brettlazor8219]

The talent on this stage knows no bounds, I love seeing Molly light up after every solo that her peers take. This is fun!

[@johnabbott1999]

Enjoyed that, and a Tuttle lady too, i live in a small village in the middle of England where the Tuttles in 1635 came from and left for Boston on the Mayflower ship......good geology to look at.

[@ellet4103]

I believe you--I think I am related to them. (I'm from Connecticut)

[@davidbergin6184]

Townes was one of our all time greatest song writers. This cover does him proud. Nice job!

Some of the best singing & picking there is to be had.

[@martymclochlin4836]

[@wyattdean5658]

Girl with the mandolin has a blue twine hay bale strap. Classic!

[@djehoti]

"Girl with the mandolin" AJ Lee

[@captainkangaroo4301]

I saw Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark perform together in Minneapolis many years ago. It was a great show despite Townes being so drunk he actually fell off his chair while performing this song.

[@Froggyh63]

Stunning rendition!!

[@santaclaushawkeyenj3878]

Thank you to the entire band for making my Saturday night brighter! Amazing! AJ thank you uploading and sharing.

[@The_Wood]

Absolutely amazing. The entire Tuttle family is talented.

[@g.mantua1195]

Oh how I love mountain music! This is fantastic!

[@dandrews1]

Tuttles are incredible.........Wow, Molly....easy to see why you won Best Guitarist at the International Bluegrass Music awards this year......

[@barryhossin1222]

They sure are, I saw them at the south Essex bluegrass festival a few years back ,fantastic !!

[@huyked]

Ugh! Crazy talent in how fast you all can play. I'm so impressed!

[@donbaker7865]

love it

[@thevitorcampos]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!

[@JosvanderLelie]

Fabulicious!

[@alan4sure]

That was really well done! We need these little reminders of just how talented the group was and still is! If I could pick half as fast as Molly and Sullivan I'd be ecstatic.

[@judsonclayto7813]

so strange but good to hear a youthful voice sing this song in 2017... maybe i shoulda stayed near Pagosa Springs for this weekend's bluegrass fest...

[@judsonclayto7813]

the song was released in 77 and townes was around 33... i have to admit that the song took on a different tone for me when I hit 34 and some of original folks i was introduced to this song with began to fade in their years...

[@IBtrollinyoufool]

Amazing

[@garybopa5133]

amazing love it thanks

[@kennethwalker1909]

great job love it

[@perromanchado]

Lovely! ♥

[@joepalooka2145]

Amazing is all I can say.

[@asahanson]

No one can play the flat top like her. Nothing but good.

[@Alix777.]

Wonderful musicians

[@timhaase3297]

Oh holy...

[@vanguard4065]

sounds great

[@QuinnWarwick]

wow

[@drumhd1]

Wow!!!

[@johnlavers3970]

that lady has magic fingers.

[@magicdaveable]

Excellent performance. I do White Freightliner in my show except my "Bluegrass" guitar is solid body electric. I began incorporating Clarence White and Tony Rice style into my "iam band" sound back in the early 1980's. I do play acoustic guitar but not as often as shredding bluegrass licks on my electric guitar.

[@dougdavis8986]

Ah, you're one those it's all about me people.

[@WTCVET]

SWEET! W2G :)

[@TheLochs]

holy shit

[@ardalla535]

I wonder if they have played Scotland and Ireland? They should. People would love them.

[@msprinkl]

I'd give anything to be able to play guitar like that! Except like practice and stuff.

[@oregontexfyb7757]

Coldblooded will you ever come to new braunfels?

[@yourmomsdildodrawer]

Good Lord! Who is that Kid on lead? I'm goingto burn all my gear right now. That kid is some next level shit....Awesome playing..!

[@mbsnyderc]

they all played lead and rhythm.

[@JusBidniss]

Do you mean the guitarist on the right? That's Molly's brother Sully, Sullivan Tuttle. The man's a flat picking machine.

[@RandomUser179]

She makes Lyle Lovett look like he is in slow motion.

[@Beemerboy324]

Love you Molly! But that is really too fast. She can pull it off and make the fire but should be played slower and more mournfully.
