Gene Parker's backup and fills are second to none. I can see why Sonny and J.D. have been caught hiding in the audience to see what he was gonna come up with.

@redlinemando Жыл бұрын

Gene was the most underrated banjo player of that time!!!!!!! He had a powerful right hand & very unique style. If you listen close to Sammy Shelor's playing, you can tell that he's listened to Gene a lot.

Not to take anything from the father of bluegrass, but this is my favorite lineup of The Lost & Found!!!!!!! Gene Parker was one of the most talented, creative & underrated banjo players that never got the recognition he deserved. Dempsey Young's mandolin playing is still fresh, innovative & unmatched to this day. RIP Allen Mills is a bluegrass staple that has also never got the full recognition he deserves. As soon as the vocal tone leaves his mouth, you know your going to get a great bluegrass song that he probably wrote himself. Steve Wilson was a great multi instrumentalist with such a unique & rich vocal tone!!!!!!! I've always wonder what ever happened to him? Does he still play? Anyway that's my 10 cents worth of opinion. Great video & God Bless!!!!!!!

@redlinemando Жыл бұрын

@@samueltosh8766 I met him once & very briefly back in late July/early August of 2009, at Fiddlefest in Roanoke, VA. I was playing mandolin for Audie Blaylock & he was booked there. Somehow, I ended up meeting Roger Handy & talking with him a little. He was an awesome guy!!!!!!! I told him about my admiration for Gene & he said, "Do you want to meet him?" Since banjo is my main instrument, I was elated to get to meet him!!!!!!! I had listened to & was a big fan of Gene's playing for several years. I had all of their early Rebel recordings & used to try to play like Gene on some stuff. When Roger introduced us, I was pretty awestruck & I don't even remember if I said much to him. lol I wish I could meet him again.............. I have a little better sense now.

@Mandolin1944 7 жыл бұрын

I'd say 1985 because Bill is playing his 1978 Gibson F-5L as both of his Loars had been fire pokered?

@gtison2942 7 жыл бұрын

I'd guess 87 (maybe '86), George Wallace still gov of Ala. and Tom Ewing was the lead singer. Also, the band played tunes from the Monroe's "Bluegrass '87 " album. ( I was probably there. These were great festivals.)

@basfiddler 7 жыл бұрын

I asked the question because Bill was awarded a plague at this concert in observance of 50 years in show business. I know that he was a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1939.

@basfiddler 7 жыл бұрын

You are correct George Wallace was governor until 1987 so it could not have been in 1989 as I thought.

Maybe they were counting the Monroe Brothers duet act as years for the award. And There are ALOT of these that U of A own. Many different bluegrass acts of the day were recorded. They used to air on Alabama public TV stations back in the day. There are a few on youtube around but they aren't labeled as such. This was the Jemison Alabama bluegrass Festival.

monroes main mando. was virtually destroyed by someone stabbing it repeatedly with a fireplace poker. the gibson company had every litty piece of wood retreivable vacuumed up. charley derrington was given the task of gluing each miniscle pice to anther. than combining pieces until as much of the original wood in that loar was back in place. one of the greatest restoration projects ever done. monroe said his mando. sounded just like it did before the vandalism. no one was ever arrested for this.

1986. Read previous post by Cheryl H. She has a proper way of narrowing it down. 🙂 He did play other mandolins occasionally.
