Mother Maybelle Carter was and is a legend never to be forgotten. It's great to listen to her play the autoharp. God rest Mother Maybelle.

She completely changed what the guitar was for country music. It's impossible to measure the influence she had. Mother Maybelle truly is the Mother of Country Music!!

From The Johnny Cash Show in 1970. He always had a great show with all kinds of music. We need more good television like this today.

She made the Carter scratch. Amazing. Mother Maybelle was a teacher for tradinotal country music in more than 30 years!

YAS!!! Maybelle was truly mother in multiple meanings of the word!!! I think part of the appeal of marrying June for Johnny was that Maybelle would be his relation, that family appreciation and long tradition of music. Bet she was the best mother in law you could ask for 😂

The guitar was Mother Maybelle's real legacy. At some point in country music somebody decided women shouldn't play instruments. That was a mistake. Today I'm so glad to see women playing again.

With the benefit of hindsight and given where the country is now, this is probably the best it's ever gonna be. Clean, uplifting music that sounds great. The people, the sounds, the essence all directly descendent from the country's founding . Men were still men, women were women; the last era. Mother Maybelle reminds me of my grandmothers, born in 1913 and 1932 respectively, they were fine ladies. Unbelievably commonplace back then, they would be seen as anomalies and freaks today: well dressed at all times, clean home at all times, cooked meals despite their busy schedules, intelligent despite no formal education beyond 8th grade and high school, pillars of their communities, never took a handout, never had a cross word to say about anyone, never complained, church every Sunday, loved and adored by all. We've lost something along the way, can't quite grasp it though.

I couldn’t have said it better myself. My mother’s side was from Knoxville, Tennessee. She was a teenager during the Great Depression. That generation won WW II. Today’s generation would never dream what they went through and came out of. And Johnny Cash... one of a kind.

Okay misogynist😂. The fact that you think women should be prim and proper and without complaint as if they are dolls is deeply disappointing. These women were trailblazers. Mother Maybelle stood up for women and bust the glass ceiling that held back country women. She was a trailblazer not a docile housewife. Put some respect on her name. If you want to be disrespectful of women and treat them as beneath you, just say it. Don't pretend like Mother Maybelle or June would agree with you.

What we’ve lost is religion. Whether the old time Protestantism of the South, the devout Catholicism of many immigrant groups, or Judaism; these are the Judeo-Christian religions western culture is based on. Nowadays one can’t even say God in public without people blushing. Everything else falls apart when we lose our moral and spiritual infrastructure.

There’s nobody like Mother Maybelle! The only two people that come close are her cousin and her brother-in-law, Sara and A.P. Carter. When the three of them started playing and singing together in the 1920s❤❤ a beautiful thing happened, which is that American folk music became a classic that would be known the world over. The sentiments represented by this music- basically the same as in all traditional lyrics and poetry: love, life and death, and God- come forth from the hills and hollows of the American South. And of course when they put the lyrics to the lively sounds of fiddles and guitars, pure magic was created! Maybe I’m lacking in music appreciation, but to me this music , what we call bluegrass, is every bit as worthy as classical music.

Who is the guy who is playing acoustic guitar beneath Bob Wooton? Who is the woman just right of Mother Maybelle Carter?

Hi, the guy next to Bob Wooton is Norman Blake. He is very talented and was always very close to the CASH family. He is also seen in June Carters last performances as a backing musician together with his wife Nancy Blake. Greetings CD
