I left KY 10 years ago. Came back last week to stay. My heart couldn't take it anymore.

Bobby Osborne was a gentle man, signed my mandolin at Bean Blossom! Took a picture with my Dad.

We went to see the Osborne brothers at an outdoor venue and it got rained out. We went back behind the stage and found their bus and Bobby visited with us, signed autograph and sat on the bus steps and played us some songs. Put on a show for 4 of us.

I was fortunate that my Dad and Uncles were bluegrass fans. We started going to festivals in the early 70’s when all the greats were still alive and performing. We saw them all. Sad that they are leaving us one by one.

I use to tell people," if you aint never heard the Osborne brothers sing Kentucky, youve been deprived & neglected", and its still true.

Daddy loved bluegrass and played mandolin. He really loved the GREAT bluegrass artists, and he played along with the Osborne Bros. album. Thank you for this performance. You made my heart smile!

I saw these guys at the first bluegrass festival near Norman Oklahoma in 1967 when i was eight years old. My parents were huge Bob Wills fans. I'll never forget sitting under the trees in lawn chairs having BBQ and listening to them.

No group or duo has ever been able to harmonize as well or as beautifully as the wonderful Osborne Brothers. They are in a class by themselves. I grew up on their music. Always a treat to listen to.

WOW, THE FINEST example of the high lonesome sound I can find. Love the Osborne Brothers!

My late husband was from Kentucky... Anna Penrod 😎Love country music.

I'm from Wisconsin, wish we had a "Kentucky" song❤

This is genuine AMERICAN music at it's very best!

One of the best things I have ever seen or heard in my whole life. Precious harmonies and that fiddle is top notch. I am floored. ♥

Amazing performance of this, stunning vocals and a great band. I love how they hold notes for extra time.

Legends. So sorry they are gone!

Pure Americana! This kind of sweet heavenly harmonies drew millions from around the globe to come here..

In 1979 these two brothers gave a 14 yr old boy his dream, to play bluegrass banjo with his favorite group in Wis. Bobby n Sonny Ill always be greatfull to you. i may not have ever met and played with all the talent i have if not for you guys. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Really makes me miss my dad. Proud of my Kentucky roots.

When I was on the road, when I started home this was the song that I played over and over.

It doesn't get any better than this.

This is amazing. Pure and Simple perfection.

Listening to this starts my day. The Osborne Brothers harmony is best in the world. The Browns were always in awe of them. I still am, I listen intently and hang onto every word. Love you Buck & Sonny. You gave the world the best bluebrass harmony ever. (Maxine Brown)

Love me some Kentucky in the spring with meadows, pastures greening and the redbuds blooming .....

ONE GREAT SONG, Miss the Osborne Brothers, Met them at the OPERY in 1966

I've only been to Kentucky once when I was 12 back in the 70's & we drove ther from Oklahoma, when we visited my uncle & aunt in Owensboro. It's a beautiful state.

The best harmony in the world are The Osborne Brothers, I love this, its my all time favorite song, I play it over and over. This gives me cold chills, love you guys, (Maxine Brown)

Beautiful music. Awesome talent. Music aint made like this anymore. I love it

I remember well singing Grandpa Jones singing at the Grand Ole Opry back in 1977, when my parents were so gracious to bring my Brother and I here. I love this kind of music. Best Wishes LittleCountryDJ

I just love these guys. Their voices blend so beautifully ....

I can remember back in the 60s & 70s, THESE GUYS WERE ABSOLUTE ROCK STARS!!! Bobby Osborne's voice is RIDICULOUS & AMAZING ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!! My dad loved The Osborne Brothers...my mom still has a few of their albums & still listens to them...she says that they bring back GREAT MEMORIES of her & my dad. I sure do miss my dad. Much love from Mobile Alabama. M

❤they are the best ever

OH MAN , YOU JUST CAN'T GO WITH LISTENING TO THIS JUST ONCE.!!!

The banjo licks playing in harmony with the mandolin between the vocal harmonies though... 🤩

Loved their music for years. Not only are they great singers, they are great people. Many years ago my mother worked with Bobby. They also have a nephew (Dean Osborne) who has a bluegrass band and he is pretty good also. A few years ago Dean's wife's grandmother passed away, a lady I had known my entire life, and at the funeral home my mother was talking to Dean about her working with Bobby years ago, and Dean invited her and my dad and me to the annual Bluegrass singing they have in Hyden, and gave us tickets to it. When we arrived, Dean picked us up in a golf cart and showed us the buses of some of the singers there, if I remember correctly, I believe there was Ralph Stanley, J.D. Crowe just to name a couple. Dean took us backstage so my mom could meet up with Bobby again. That was a VERY good day, a day I know I'll never forget, and I'm sure my mom and dad will never forget it either. Every one of those singers we met were the warmest, friendliest down to earth people you'll ever meet.

greatest state in the world. aint a place in this world more beautiful than Gods own KENTUCKY. my home no matter where Im at.

Beautiful song, my heart will always be in Kentucky

This song really makes me want to visit Kentucky

This is my grandfather’s favorite song! He lost his wife about a month and a half ago. Bless his soul, he’s still alive, but he gets lonely over there... 😕

I had a bad teen age 3years but I would not leave for nothing I love all the good old bluegrass music

I love you Kentucky. yer my home no matter where I may ramble on to. I love by home state more than the whole country combined. Gods country

Kentucky born, Kentucky bred, when I die, I'll be Kentucky dead!!!!!! God's country is what it is!!

I’m 21 years old and I really wish I had been born 40 years earlier…

So beautiful! Kentucky reminds me of my own sweet home, Oklahoma, with 'gentle' rain. So beautiful. Grand Pa came out of south central Kentucky and, a wagon ride away came Grand Ma from north central Tennessee.

Goose bumps. Glad there are other people out there that know great music. Thanks for posting.

I long for the days, of the real country music

I love Bluegrass and Bobby and Sonny is the greatest, I love to listen to Kentucky.

I can never get enough of this wonderful harmony. I was lucky enough to be back stage the night this was filmed. I think they did it just for me, they knew I loved this song, loved everything they ever did, but this one gives me goose bumps. Thanks Buck & Sony, no one can ever come close to this. (Maxine Brown)

That takes talent coming in the right time on vocals. Beautiful job.

3 folks tone deaf, goes to show the rest of us are just fine...... how can you not love this?

Have any of you listened to Charlie & Ira Louvins version of this it is simply Beautiful

That is extraordinary. Totally original American music. These guys could have played in any town or village in the world and would have connected. It's music beyond language. Priceless.

I like to listen to this with a glass of Kentucky straight bourbon (Evan Williams 1783).

What a great song! I tried to watch the CMA awards not long ago. I thought I was in country music hell.

Love all kinds of music, heavy metal, 50's, 60's, 70's rock & roll, easy listening, country, 40's big band, folk, ect. Blue grass is probably my favorite type of music.. love blue grass gospel is also very good..

Nobody better than the Osborne Brothers in Bluegrass music. I SHOULD KNOW, I'M A KENTUCKY BORN AND RAISED BLUEGRASS SINGER!!! FOLLOWED THEM SINCE CHILDHOOD. at the annual Homecoming concert for years, just beautiful harmonies!

I saw bobby osborne and the rocky top express today at meadowgreen in clay city kentucky, sung happy birthday to him, hes turning 83, and he sung kentucky, it was pretty.

Red Bird,KY. Beautiful,so are the people.

I love these guys! I am proud that they're from my home state.😊💞

SOOOOO beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

Karl and Harty would be proud. Such tight harmony to such a wonderful song.

Today is Joe's birthday,, I just got done playing his favorite song, it's Kentucky by Bobby and Sonny and all the group!! I planted the tree of life on mother's day this year, I'll love him forever and I know that he will do the same,,,

GREAT music by a great group of artist. Thank for music.

That marvelous fiddler is Glen Duncan...one of the most talented fiddlers ever!

Love this. The instrumentals after the lyrics and harmonies are incredible. Similarities to my own traditional music in Ireland

The Osborne's were always Top Drawer - Superior harmony and years ahead of their time! Great performance~

Love it! Maybe one day the Kennedy center honors! They deserve it!

I'm so proud to be a true Kentuckian. Bred born and raised.

Makes me wish I had been born there,but I love Nova Scotia and feel we have the same longing for our home.

Still , after 27 yrs. since I first heard'um on College Radio , they still give me goosebumps!

All I can Say What A GEM...Thanks

simply beautiful!!

Been enjoying the Louvin's and Ev's on this for sixty years....never thought anyone else could come close....but these boys did!

thanks great song by the best

I'm from Maine - have been my whole life (so far), but I love this song. Their harmonies are spot on and their voices are terrific.

Rip Mr. Sonny Osborne…..

It sure don't get any better than that. Love that song !!!

None better. I just love this song and, always, it must be these two that sing it. Their harmony is the best - this is harmony. Their band is also great.

sonny Osborne...one of the best

No one will ever touch the Osborne Brothers Greatness in Bluegrass!

This was always my dad's favorite group. He knew Bobby and Sonny personally. I can remember this music all my life. God bless them.

Thank you so much for blue Grass songs from westmlnster MD

I was so honored to see these guys a few years ago The greatest

I like most all of their songs. No music I'd rather listen to while gardening working or just kickin back by a fire in the summertime! Awesome group! Beautiful music!

i've heard many great groups harmonize on this song but the osborne brothers are my favorite.

thank you for this post. The one thing my late father and I shared was the love of bluegrass, especially the Osborne Brothers. My father got to jam with them many years ago and I just loved their vocal harmonization. We had the priviledge of seeing them in person many times. Thank you for the very fond memories.

These two great musicians and singers, will never be forgotten. What a treasure to America and the Southland. Thank God for them.

My Lord, it was the sweetest harmony ever, family or otherwise plain and simple, hands down !

@Katragew You're welcome! After Bobby went solo, I heard him on the Grand Ole Opry and his voice broke twice. I was afraid he had lost his voice, but then he recorded a duet with Rhonda Vincent, "Midnight Angel", and his voice is true, he punches every syllable, and I love it! If you haven't heard it, you should download it from Amazon for 99 cents. The clip catches a little of the harmony, but doesn't get to Bobby's solo verse. The Rhonda Vincent album is "All American Bluegrass Girl".

Can't go on a trip without listening to this

People , groups , and music like this is what made The Grand Ole Opry one of the greatest in the world , just like The people , things of God , and great founders ( not kings or dictators ) made America one of the greatest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ernest E. Johnson

Love that song !!!

Me and my Daddy play this song together all the time love the osbornes

i was born on march 18 and i live in Kentucky and play mandolin and i have a band with my best friend named Noah and he plays fiddle

FANTASTIC. WOW! What more can I say. My FAVORITE Bluegrass song.

My late Dad Loved Bluegrass, especially the Osborne Bros. We share the same last name, Also have a connection to Dayton Ohio. My wheelhouse of music has always been 80s Rock/Metal. I remembered hearing them as a kid but never understood how incredible They are. This Video touched Me, WOW!!!!!!

One of their most beautiful renditions...Glen Duncan simply shines on the fiddle! Terry Eldridge, vocals and guitar; the late Gene Wooten on dobro; Raymond Huffmaster seated with guitar; Terry Smith on the upright bass, and of course the finest brother duet (in my humble opinion) to grace the Opry stage: Sonny and Bobby Osborne. I was there that night...what a fun time and wonderful memory. Thnaks for sharing this great video!!

oh yes thank u i've been searching for the Osborn brothers a long time !!!

I’m not from Kentucky and neither was Stepdad who I dearly miss really loved him. He loved listening to you both and loved your music and by the way his name was George Osborne and we are from New York about 45 miles north of the city.

Just found these guys, really nice stuff. This will be my driving music for a while
