That he was. I was reading just the other day that Kenny Baker said he spent a lot of time with Tommy, who was a big influence on his playing with Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys.

Mike Seeger on guitar, and I think that is Kirk Suthpin on banjo...anybody know for sure?

The banjo player is Blanton Owen, who was also a folklorist and a private pilot. He often played banjo when Mike would take Tommy out on tour. Blanton also recorded with the Fuzzy Mountain String Band. Sadly, he died in a plane crash in 1998. It should be mentioned that this footage and much more (including Roscoe Holcomb, Dock Boggs and Kilby Snow) is for sale in a video titled "Shady Grove - Old Time Music from North Carolina, Kentucky and Virginia" available from Stefan Grossman's guitarvideos dot com. www.guitarvideos.com/Products/vestapol-dvds/shady-grove-old-time-music-from-north-carolina-kentucky-and-virginia#.WYt30a2ZPOY

@@hcpmp Yes, I was about to reply the same. I have that video, too. I think someone told me it was shot at a college campus concert. I only met Blanton once, only a few years before he crashed his plane. He flew his plane out to California (from Nevada, I think) with his girlfriend to see Tom Sauber and Mel Durham in a house concert I organized for Tom. He was still playing that Kyle Creed banjo with the white fingerboard.
