He is my grandpa ti

I grew up in Steelville in the 70's & 80's, but I never had the chance to meet Ralph Brown. Could you possibly tell me where I can get this video on DVD, I'd like to purchase a copy & so would certain people in my family? Thank you.

I enjoy and share.

These dang commercial are a horror. God bless y'alls God's folks!

༎ຶ‿༎ຶ your grandfather seems such a wise and wonderful soul.

That’s awesome

༎ຶ‿༎ຶ i'm watching in 3030, so there

Fritz Asher I bet it was, those older fellers no how to git er dun

Arkansas boys are true bad ass

Born and raised in Missouri with dirt roads and fishing in the creeks and I miss it ..... 2021

I hate this younger generation but I still live the way my grandpa taught me and they way his taught him and I’m lucky and happy to have the figures and teachers that I have

There are a few of us that continue as much as we can in the old ways.

The most beautiful

Amen

Rose brown?

I met him many years ago he was one heck of a man

Cheryl Brown yes rose brown is his daughter

you can have it buzz..

Right there with ya on that

Except there really arent mountains, they are just hills. I dont know why they're reffered to as the "Ozark Mountains"

My grandfather was from rueter and longrun out there in Ozark County. His name was ernest scott

Jeffrey Scott I know that name I can’t remember from where but I do know that name

Glad you like it. I wrote the song while I was shooting the video. It was a real and rewarding experience and I'm so glad people like it

Tom Shipley what year was this video shot?

Tom Shipley when was this video taken

He is my grampa

May his soul rest, God Bless Ralph

You’re right about the city folks ruining it, they have no respect for what we have.

Alexander Light it’s similar here in NC with the cape fear river. Trash everywhere

Snappers out of these clean Ozark rivers are delicious, hell just about everything out of these rivers are really good eating. Buffalo Carp are probably my favorite

You sure sound blessed and I want to live the country life too!

jeneka0989 I hope it happens soon for you :)

Steve Ontiveros i live in Malibu and find the people fantastic! Educated, sophisticated, confident and interesting! I was in the Ozarks jan 12 and 13 of this year in a place called “mountain home”. I found the people down to earth...but unable to carry a conversation

Steve Ontiveros I have alot of family in Springfield and all around that area...my dad is from the area but came to Georgia in the late sixties and that's where I'm from (Cherokee County) but I have alot of family from my dad's side up in Missouri...three sisters, niece's, nephews, cousins, aunt's and uncles... I'm a Cummings and I'm told there's alot of us up there...my cousin told me there's a place called Cummings Ridge I think somewhere outside of Branson... I use to visit alot when I was a kid but I haven't been up there in about 20 years... I lived in Springfield with my sister last time I was up there for about three months and I loved it... people are really nice up there and there's alot of good fishing too which is a plus for me... Springfield is getting pretty over run though... it's a college town and there's alot of cocky young folk wanting to start trouble... I think it's Greene County? And it's on live PD alot lol... it's definitely changed alot since the time my dad grew up there but if you get out in the country a little more you come across the people that are still hanging on to those always help your neighbor country values that I really respect... it's a shame that all over the country we're losing those small town values and it's a shame that so many uppity snobby people see those people as narrow minded when in fact many of them are the salt of the Earth and have in many ways held this country together... many of them are the ones who stepped up and fought for this country when it was needed... young people today don't respect those values and that's why this country is going to shit... I have alot of family up there I've never met and I would really like to go visit again and maybe attend a family reunion...my Dad passed away a few years ago...he was the oldest of six brother's and he outlived them all...it would mean alot to me if I could meet some of his kin and and maybe hear some stories about my dad and my uncle's when they were younger... I've heard they were hell raisers when they were young...my dad's youngest brother died racing cars when he was very young so I never got to meet him... never got to meet my grandpa either and I'm named after him...he died a month before I was born...he had a heart attack while roofing my uncle's house around Springfield... anyway maybe some of your family and my family know each other... it's a small world you never know

Craven Moorehead unable to carry on a conversation? Why? Because you are so intellectually superior? If that's the case then just stay in Cali so you and the rest of the intellectually superior can look down on country folk with your collective sense of superiorty you fucking self righteous dickhead!!!! I can't stand people like you that look down on other people like they're ignorant but ironically enough you're the one with the mind that is so narrow you're incapable of understanding and appreciating anyone who thinks differently or lives a different lifestyle... I'll pray for you though... hopefully one day you'll figure out you're not as smart as you think you are...a wise man understands he always has alot to learn

That’s amazing

My parents grew up along Centerpoint Road and Moutray Road. I miss visiting this area. It is such a beautiful area of the Country.

Big Bill O'Reilly if you have a problem join AA

He passed away but his daughter rose brown runs the company still and she is loved by many especially my family

Then we're cousins... my paternal grandmother is his first cousin, Laverna Brown.

Please go back home yankee

Did your grandpappy play dem good ol' Delta blues Like Muddy waters and Howlin Wolf. I love black folks country music called the blues. The old ones and not the stuff today.

@@christopherfreeman1340 never heard anything about him playing blues, because he’s a preacher….. but he did have a gospel quartet, which isn’t too far from that delta blues sound.

You yanks from chicago stop coming down to arkansas and missouri

Hope you made it

@@Captain_Leadbottom,in July I closed on some property on the Missouri/Arkansas border. Raw land n wooded. Off Grid the way I want it. Wildlife n berries on it. Thanx for your concern. A lady in South East Arkansas stopped in the parking lot were I was to go buy coffee. She asked what I was doing in Arkansas. I told her(going to buy land). She replied "God Bless You". I got my blessing neighbor !

@@Captain_Leadbottom ,correction not South East but South West Arkansas.

Debbie Henning I remember Brewer and Shipley from the late 60’s & 70’s. And PBS has been outstanding in this long life. This must’ve been produced a while back.

🤣😂

The body adapts to its environment

@enoch1680 this was my grandfather but never got to meet him. Do you have any stories to share somehow?

Remember falling asleep to that sweet song, windows open and fan on

and that Bob White. Don't hear them much anymore...

I thought 1970s he say in the beginning grew up during the depression. Than says they would have to be here 30 or 40 years

15:35 that is probably filmed in the 1960s or before.

It was published in 1989

After 1983 Ford trucks didn't have the triangular window. That truck appeared to b early 1980s.

I'm not sure some of the clips are from the early 1920s but, it was published in 1989. I'm not sure if that was the first release.

That we do

@@84jamesp You get ticks and chiggers no matter how long you live there.

Taking a raft of ties down the creek and rivers to Pacific, MO to be sold to the railroads for railroad ties. They used to be hand-hewn with an axe - now railroad ties are run through machinery and not cut down one axe swing at a time. In the past, if you had a marketable product, whether it was sorghum molasses, beaver pelts, fox furs, rail ties or whatever, you had to at least take it to town or down the river or somewhere to sell it.

Yes he passed away

And outsiders brought it

Poooo! that stunk!

HAAA!
