This series of video's are from my mothers closet, and represent a lot of history in bluegrass music. I have decided to post these videos to the cloud to preserve the history. Should there be any copyright issues, I may have to make them private. Enjoy!

I'm thankful for KZfaq - For hours of great live video that myself and the rest of the younger generation would never have been able to see otherwise. JD Crowe will always be my main reference point for bluegrass banjo playing and he never fails to bring a smile to my face. Thank you JD, Rest in Peace!

J.D.Crowe's New South one of the best bands I ever heard (and I heard a lot I can tell you, have been listening bluegrass for some 55 years). Outstanding traditional sound, especially Ricky Wasson, great voice, plays guitar bluegrass style the right way. A 10 for this great band.

@CharlesCornettFL 2 жыл бұрын

I grew up knowing that aspiring bluegrass banjo players would learn "Scruggs" style, and once they had the hang of it, it was time to introduce the "Crowe" method. I don't play banjo, but several superstars that came up through the New South all said they learned the same thing: timing. J.D. discovered banjo sitting on the floor cross-legged watching Earl Scruggs on stage.

JD, If it means anything, 1951 was when I was born. The very first song I ever heard picked on a banjo was when I was in First grade, called Oh Suzanna, o don't you cry for me, cause I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee!!

Sharing that one mic is an entertaining style--- the audience loves it--especially the harmonies, and it makes for great photos. But one night I saw JD perform with Dwight at the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA, and Dwight had a TERRIBLE cold; even so, the show was GREAT. All I could think of was that in 2 days, poor JD would be sick--REALLY sick--with Dwight's cold. Couldn't they have asked the Birchmere to set up two mics for just that night?

@CharlesCornettFL Жыл бұрын

The choice of one, two, or twelve mics has been the choice of the band, as opposed to the venue, since about 1968. JDC&TNS are known for a lot of things, and one is awesome sound. Rickey Wasson was largely responsible for the the audio setup in this era. The single mic allows the vocalists to hear each other with precision, and this band has MOUNTAINS of precision.

@CharlesCornettFL 2 жыл бұрын

A banjo expert will chime in (they can't help it), but I believe that J.D. played Gibson Granadas nearly exclusively, though I remember him having a Frank Neat or two.

@tylercarter770 2 жыл бұрын

This one is the pre-war RB-75 world renowned as “Banger”. Later in life JD purchased 9584-1 granada. There were 5 banjos in that 9584-x series JD ended up with 9584-1, Sonny Osborne owned 9584-2. 9584-3 was the Granada used by Earl Scruggs on almost any flat and Scruggs recording you’ll hear today. 9584-4 was a top tension tenor banjo I believe, and 9584-5 is, or was, in North Carolina.

I was so glad to hear Ledbetter had gone into remission from the Big C. Eat yer heart out J Douglas. My band partner, Wayne Harris (no slouch on banjo himself) never liked J D's playing. Why? Who knows? I was in the USAF in 1956. First song I ever heard J D play was Sophronie with Jimmy Martin
