When you ad in Mark O'Connor on guitar , Darol Angor on fiddle and Mike Marshall to round out the Grisman Quintet you could be right .

[Starrshine]

That sure was some good playing!!!

[skipdog]

Jethro taught me '83-'85 @ Guitar Works in Evanston Il. I have been making a living at it ever since, inspite of Jethro's insisting I choose a more honorable existence!

[Jim Garber]

Wow. I believe i saw this version of DGQ in Long Island around then. I also attended one and only workshop with Jethro in West Virginia and Ashokan Western Week twice with Tiny.

[Mike Herlihy]

Plus mandocello, excellent!

[AlanN]

I never tire of watching that DVD, so very great. The slow blues in G Johnny Gimble solo is fantastic.

[Marty Jacobson]

Wow! Great find. Amazing stuff here. This will be my shop soundtrack today.

[Jim Garber]

BTW you can skip to around 1:30 to start the real music. Let's see if this works.

[grassrootphilosopher]

Great find. But nobody mentioned the great Rob Wasserman on bass. Also it´s a lesson as to how different musician´s styles can be. Each mandolin picker is great, but it is equally amazing to notice their different styles of picking.

Oh no!!! the video is not available!!
Any one downloaded it?

[roberto]

Anyone remember the youtube user who posted the video?

[CCRider]

Has anybody tracked down this video again?

[notneils]

Yes please! Would love to see it up on a bit torrent site if not on youtube. Or an old fashioned trading chain?

[AlanN]

So many great things about that vid.

- Tiny
- Jethro
- Johnny
- Eldon
- The harmony that Mike gets on EMD

It's a joy

[Phil Goodson]

Apparently never to be seen again by most of us.

Larry thanks for the great clip. Where do you find it?

[Will Patton]

This is a pretty special show. There's great playing all around but there is also a moment in a Johnny Gimble solo (I think it's on a blues, I'll have to listen again) that is completely transcendent, might be the coolest lick ever, and of course he's totally relaxed and smiling right through it. I ran this again and again to understand this lick. Johnny Gimble rules.

[Bob Bass]

A hearty "Thank You!" to Larry for locating this video again! The level of musicanship on both ends of the video is pretty high! A pleasure to watch and listen!

Got a note that the Capital of Texas Public Telecommunications Council requested the video be removed from YouTube. Wish there was a DVD of this commercially available. It's pure gold.

I have written a letter of protest to KLRU, and suggest that many more do the same.

[GreenMTBoy]

Sure would like to see this .
