A fan since the very beginning. I will always miss them, so vids like this are both happy and sad. I am sure they are playing and singing for the angels. At least that's what I like to think about all the winderful troubadors we've lost over the years.

Lifelong KT fan, and an acoustic guitar player myself for 60 years. As good as this concert is, I swear I would re-watch it 100 times just to see Bob Shane change a guitar string while standing and singing one verse of Worried Man! And it took me four replays to figure out where he got the new string from! Fantastic!

We are in severe lockdown in the UK with this terrible virus. What a fantastic show to relieve the boredom. I was 15 in 1957. The Kingston Trio inspired me to play Banjo after I heard Tom Dooley and 63 years later I am playing along with them. So sad about Bob Shane I did not know of his passing until now. Stay safe everyone.

I had the privilege of seeing the Kingston Trio at Mountain Home AFB recreation center in Idaho one friday night in 1977. I was a wonderful experience because I grew up listening to these guys because my mother loved them. Thank God for that. I've never forgot that. No matter how old this music is I never get tired of listening to it. I hope after covid I get to see the new version of the Trio.

I was fortunate to see this line up, around this time, at South Lake Tahoe. Just the 3 of them, and to me, they don’t need backing musicians. Bob had “string issues” that night as well! Lol We were stage center at a table right up against the stage. Of course they were amazing.🎼 We also had a chance to chat briefly after the show. Best of memories.🙏🙏🙏

Last night I learned that Bob Shane had died early this year. Nick passed some time ago, Dave many years before that. But Bob was the final survivor of the original trio. And that mattered to me in some deeply personal way that I can't quite figure out. All I know is that it was comforting to know one of them remained. In any capacity, whether retired from performing or infirm, it was always a relief to see it confirmed that Bob Shane endures. But that comfort was lost to me last night.
@scottcrout12873 жыл бұрын
Not sure where this is going, but I just found out tonight. And I feel the same feeling as did Tim. I felt good having Bob with us all this way. Like part of our lives which was so special, all the song I sang with folk groups I was with. Such as special groups of songs which touched so many of us, and still will of course. Music and the people who make it adds so uch much to all of our lives. As all the years we have been through, those to come. So many of the stars and groups are leaving, and our lives seem different. But thanks to videos and KZbin and Prime Amazon which allow us to stream all the memories any time we want. So we continue to make the music we all love, for ever as long as we can hear them. And maybe more, who knows. Best of wishes to all, and wear your masks out there.

Great to hear these songs again. People today may not know how big they were in the late '50s. They rekindled interest in folk music, which had fallen out of public favor since the days of the Weavers and Woody Guthrie. There were messages in some songs, but mostly fun and they didn't always take it too seriously. It was a few years later that folk became the voice of protest in the turbulent '60s.

We saw this combination of the trio play this version of Long Black Veil here in Charlotte many years ago. It has to be one of the best song endings they ever did... brought the house down and a standing ovation. Much better version than what they had done on the New Frontier album. Excellent show and thanks for posting it.

Hi Mark ..... About the time this video was recorded, George had commissioned Greg Deering to build his first Deering banjo .. The "Banjosaurus". The Deerings became involved with building the "Vega" line of banjos a little after that. This Mastertone is the banjo GG used from 1976 until he had his "Banjosaurus" built. He had two of these Mastertones ..this one and a cherry finish model. He always liked to play this one more. They were both RB 800 banjos. I am pleased to say that I have owned the banjo in this video since May 31st 1991. After a concert I attended near my home, GG dropped by and left it with me to try out. He never got it back.

In 1991 (?) I saw this group twice. Absolutely fabulous. At the later peak of their career. Peculiar here is that George Grove is not playing his custom Deering/Vega long-neck banjo.

A millennial who was the grandson of two folkies who are gone now, Chilly Winds was the first song I ever heard when I was 12, and this year I came back into them really deeply, and looking at a lot of groups now, it’s so hard off hand to name any group who could still be this precise and this on fire even WHILE making mistakes, 30 years later, hard pressed, no worry I’ll just stick to KT!

Bob leased the name KT to the current group before he died, and the new lessee let George Grove, Rich Dougherty and Bill Born (who were the longest serving Trio) go. He formed a new trio, which has been reformed two or three times over the last 5 years or so. No, they are not as good to my ear. I don't know how they are doing business wise now. @@rickp.5545

George is extremely talented. Just before he died, Bob sold the KT name to someone else, who let George, Rick Dougherty and Bill Zorn go (those three had been the longest serving KT) and replaced them with himself and two others. George and Rick joined Jerry Siggins and formed the Folk Legacy Trio, which still tours, as does the reconstructed KT.

I saw Bob, George, and Roger Gambill in '83 and George was playing the Gibson Mastertone. Some time in the 90's he switched to the "Banjosaurus" then in '98 I saw them again, only with Nick replacing the deceased Roger, and George was playing the longneck Deering/Vega. Last month (Sep 2018) I attended the concert in Kennebunk, Maine featuring the latest rendition of the Trio, Tim Gorelangton, Mike Marvin, and Bob Haworth. I've seen them in concert off and on since the early 60's and regardless of the personnel, they're always great.
