The Hollow Poplar - Foggy Mountain Boys

featuring Earl Scruggs and Paul Warren on the Flatt & Scruggs Grand Ole Opry Show.

[@JohnHicksPicks]

It is crazy the tone that Earl pulls with absolutely no effort

[@1930Granada]

I love the way Earl's left hand glides along the strings, barely applying any pressure, yet still getting that tone.

[@patrickolaughlin6027]

Earl and Paul , life is good .

[@brucenicholls854]

Paul was a great fiddler!And of course,Earl always killed it!

[@benperea8483]

Earl...just plain awesome

[@andrewmartin538]

Paul Warrin. What s treasure !

[@pjoconnor718]

Yup yup yup!

[@SteveGoldfield]

I'm not positive, but I think Fiddling Arthur Smith wrote this tune. He certainly played it. It's widely played in old-time sessions, though usually at a more moderate pace.

[@JudgeSturdy]

That is a pretty moderate pace. Check out Arthur Smith's version.

[@1930Granada]

@@JudgeSturdy Yup, Paul was easily capable I'd going much faster. If you've ever seen the video of the Foggies playing Randy Lynn Rag around '58 or so, he damn near saws that ol' Stainer in two.

[@jdgjdg4447]

Don’t get me wrong Earl Scruggs could play a banjo Fairchild Could burn it up

[@jdgjdg4447]

Well then I guess let me put it this way when you can show me where Earl Scruggs has 2 Gold albums then we’ll talk

[@jdgjdg4447]

I built Harley Davison’s Custom motorcycles but that don’t make me Jesse James

[@jdgjdg4447]

I’m not taking nothing away from the man he was pretty decent on the banjo but I’ve actually got family members that could beat him he just invented the three finger style Fairchild perfected it

[@zelmoziggy]

😂

[@beastinthesky6774]

Bro nobody cares lmao

[@JohnHicksPicks]

I could name 10 banjo players that are better than raymond

[@adamzocchi]

Scruggs and "pretty decent"... an oxymoron

[@jdgjdg4447]

Fairchild is a 10 times better banjo player

[@danielcollins247]

Earls tone was way better than Raymond Fairchild s

[@JohnHicksPicks]

You are just stupid
