@@williamwright I'd argue that this song is both, with bluegrass being a sub-genre of country and this song in particular having a more country structure and flavor than most of the material that the FMB (and their fellow bluegrass contemporaries) played

Razor sharp harmony... Back when country singers didn't depend 99% on autotune.

@jensjesfjeld6238 Жыл бұрын

They couldn't. There was no such thing as autotune. Autotune was a pitch pipe or guitar note. They had to have the ability to actually DO it (which is talent) on request.

The country music community owes a great deal of thanks to the Carter family that made an all day trek from clinch mountain in Virginia to Bristal Tennessee to record that first country song on a record " bury me under the weeping willow tree. Sadly country has seen a murder on music row.

Written by Joe Maphis recalling his attendance at a small club in Bakersfield where he saw a group that featured a guy named Buck Owens.

@jameshepburn4631 2 ай бұрын

Joe always said he wrote it in his head on the way back to LA. from Bakersfield. In the early 1950’s there was no I-5 Freeway. The old “grapevine” road through the hills to the L.A. basin would have taken about two hours, obviously enough time for Joe to come up with a classic.

It’s a little before my time but I’m about 90% sure Flatt & Scruggs were the first to record this classic written by Joe Maphis, the all time great guitarist famous for awesome picking on his double neck Mosrite. Joe & Rose Lee, his wife and singing partner, didn’t record it themselves until about two years later in 1954. Their version and the F&S version are both head and shoulders better than any others including the cuts by Gosdin, Wagoner, & Twitty.

AKA Flatt and Scruggs, bluegrass legends! I'm surprised to see Lester playing in open E without a capo, that isn't very common in bluegrass.

@iragitlin7549 7 ай бұрын

He did that a lot. Check out video of F&S playing "Don't Let Your Deal Go Down". They played it in F, so the chords are D-G-C-F. Pretty straightforward, right? But Lester capo'd at fret 1 and played C#7-F#-B7-E!
