RB72 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 When I was younger (roughly 8-13 years old to be specific)I listened to a lot of country music as that's all my dad listened to. Long story short...at around 9 years old I saw Ricky Skaggs in concert and I loved it. I still like old country, but this new stuff just sounds like bad pop. Just my opinion of course. Now come's Jack White and The Raconteurs playing alongside Rick Skaggs (he dropped the Y at some point). I hadn't even thought about him for years really until now. This is a great song and Rick Skaggs really is a talent. Not that much into Bluegrass but the guy can play. And I'm a Jack White fan. Anyway I thought I would share this. Some of you older folks might enjoy it. (And some younger). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4QbEcVVBHM&feature=PlayList&p=55953174FB00C23E&index=0&playnext=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky scott 29 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Ricky Skaggs gained quite a bit of weight lately, didn't he? I was also a Skaggs fan, never here him that much anymore or anywhere.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego the guy Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 ricky plays a mean mandolin, but when you think about it, bluegrass style is really old (and original) but it is still living in hearty souls like ricky and jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recsec Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I know that there are a number of folks who don't really care for Jack White, but IMHO he is an exremely talented and versatile musician. He has worked with Lorreta Lynn and I think has a great respect for music of all types. Great Post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
