By: deruble. on 12 Dec 07, 06:23:46
I was drawn to John Hartford with this song. And later, I saw him perform at the Whole Coffeehouse at the University of Minnesota in the early 1970s. He began at 7 p.m. and I had to leave at midnight to catch the last bus to St. Paul (the driver spared me a two-mile walk to my apartment when he let me stay on the bus even though I didn't have the dime to pay when crossing the Minneapolis/St. Paul city line). The concert was among the best I've seen -- and I've seen a few.

By: rayrgm9. on 15 Nov 07, 03:22:05
Truly incredible ... if not for You Tube I would never have had the pleasure of viewing this tresure. This is why I believe songwriters should sing their own songs, as only they can express the true feeling of a song as intended.

By: andyg564. on 06 Nov 07, 23:45:54
John Hartford died of cancer back in 01 I think. He had suffered from it for some time. The dvd concert of "O Brother Where Art Though" filmed in 2000 in Nashville that he compered clearly shows he was very ill at the time. Amazing man. Huge loss.

Phenomenal tune from a phenomenal album. Saw JH once in a small club in NYC. No band. Just him. Aside from the banjo, he played the fiddle and flat picked the guitar. I remember him doing the Golden Globe song. So many of these great bluegrass players can just do it all. Such a loss.

To dodgewaldo: FYI, John Hartford passed away long before bluegrass started to sound like country. These are the real musicians. Just like Bill Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, and so on. You're just a moron that obviously doesn't know what he's talking about.

By: TraeBuckner. on 26 Nov 08, 00:32:24
You fail to mention or recognize that Hartford also played the fiddle. Extremely well in my opinion.. ..and before you start the rant, There are many styles of fiddle playing out there and John Hartford had his own style. Bill Monroe himself said to learn the fundamentals and the timing of Bluegrass music then GET YOUR OWN STYLE! Oh.. BTW John also played the guitar but you probably never gave him a listen long enough to find that out. Too bad.. He really did some wonderful stuff.

Nobody is ...
By: TraeBuckner. on 26 Nov 08, 00:19:13
Nobody is criticizing dodgewaldo's talent or ability. He's a fine flatpicker. I think that the issue is his decision to trash talk so many fine musicians on the same media resource that he's trying to showcase and promote his own musical talents. It just doesn't seem wise trash talk in this way especially when you play the same (or similar) styles of music. Trash talking other musicians is not a very good way to positively promote yourself and make friends and fans.. Think about it.

Not a shabby bunch of folks to have collaborated and worked with over the years huh?

By: TraeBuckner. on 16 Nov 08, 10:56:05
A joke?? I personally feel that this is a very ignorant comment. John Hartford was a very respected and influential songwriter and one of the greatest entertainers in the whole bluegrass scene and possible in all of musical entertainment. If he was a joke then why did masters such as Tony Rice, Vassar Clements, Jerry Douglas (Just in this vid) and MANY more of the greatest bluegrass legends of all time would have appeared and performed with him numerous times throughout the years?

The NHL Whalers had a couple of decent seasons but they also had a few really good players who were so under represented becaise of where they played. Besides that, I LOVE the name Whalers for a team. What a politically incorrect name, glorifying killing whales. I absolutely LOVE it!

The song AJA is my all time song from #1 band all time. Sober over twenty years, my five spiritual experiences came as a guest of gleaning their concerts in the years 1994,2000,2003,2006 and 2007. They have tapped a force that is intrinsically hopeful,good and optimistic for mankind!

By: pleeezeeatme. on 04 Mar 08, 00:41:25
I definitely, absolutely, positively, agree with honouring Steve Gadd's drumming in this song. All the weird rhythms during the verse can probably be attributed to Gadd, and let's face it, the explosive drumming towards the end is what makes the song so great.

I like Bill's playing quite a bit. I was lucky enough to attend Drummer's Collective and first hand how creative and innovative Gadd was and still is. Weckl, Vinnie and Chambers brought it up a noth for sure, but Gadd started all the linear drumming and truly is one of the most recorded drummers since John Guerin. thanx

I spoke to Gene Shay last year about releasing some of the archival footage from previous years. They started videotaping every performer in 1985, so there should be some really great stuff in those archives. I don't know where that project stands, but Gene (who started "Sliced Bread" record) thought that it might be doable if there was enough interest in the project.

By: wink359. on 29 Feb 08, 16:35:57
I heard him for the first time around 1974, when I was around 14. My brother was going to Virginia Tech, and brought home a reel to reel tape of John Hartford's album "Aereoplane", which to this day is one of my all time favorite records. Being from New Jersey, I had never been exposed to Blue Grass music before and I fell in love with the sound and with John Hartford. I was so sad when I heard of his death. I still listen to "Aereoplane" and it still feels good. Thank you, John Hartford

When national treasures like John Hartford and Bill Monroe pass the media doesn't even give them one second of recognition. But let some worthless trash rapper get shot and it's everywhere...even years after the fact. What a disgrace. They just don't make 'em like this anymore. Thanks for the everlasting music, John.

I can't get enough of this song. I use to work on the Mississippi Queen steamboat shown at the very beginning of this video. John Hartford, who was very fond of steamboats, who come and visit. He played a few conerts for crew on the bow of the boat. A very fond memory.

By: VA24541. on 21 Sep 08, 02:49:45
No, history is what REALLY happened. Ken Burns created stuff for this show. In many cases he did not report what really happened, he just reported what he wanted, no matter that it was not true. History is a very exact thing, and revisionist such as Burns should label their work as fiction.

By: ParkerAllen2. on 19 Sep 08, 17:52:28
You'd probably be fun to talk to on this topic but this is my last comment so feel free to have the final word. There's no ONE true history on anything - the record is always incomplete and created by people who themselves were interpreting what happened to them. Historians have to choose and decipher. Your version is probably as biased as Burns' - you just don't happen to like the direction he approached it from. (And to think - you and I just came here to listen to a little good music).

You are correct, ...
By: VA24541. on 19 Sep 08, 16:49:59
You are correct, however there is only ONE true history of any event. There are lots of ways to spin anything, but there is only one true set of events, and that is what history is. Burns simply told the story of the War Between the States the way he wanted to, historical facts be dammed.

By: VA24541. on 19 Sep 08, 08:22:31

"..so was that a good thing or what? " He sent his army into an infantry attack at Franklin against an entrenched enemy without supporting artillery. Long story short: they were butchered, losing many including the South's finest division commander, Pat Cleburne. What was left was further decimated at Nashville. Hood was an extremely brave commander, but reckless with his men-what Lee called a "bull fighter".Yet, veterans of his of both the AOT and the ANV were proud to have served under Hood.

It's a Mosrite! Obviously made for him by Mosrite, as it has his initials at the 12th fret. It isn't an E on the pickguard but an M in a circle. There is a very good photograph of this guitar in the Glen Campbell Galveston song book. It is also an electric guitar! Notice the pickup between the soundhole and the fretboard, just above the pickguard.

By: nickandmikec. on 29 Jan 08, 17:12:07
Do you or anybody else know what kind of guitar it is that Glen Campbell is playing in this video? It appears to be a 00 sized guitar and possibly an epiphone, but then the headstock looks like a take on the headstock of a Louis Panormo 19th Century parlor guitar?

"Glenn is my Uncle ,I remember him leaving me and his daughter waiting to go to the zoo. As we sat on the porch till 10 at night He then came home so drunk he couldnt keep his hat on. Good song Bad man" Glen Campbell is a class act. You sound very judgemental. So you didn't get to go to the zoo, poor kid. Get over it. I met Glen and found him, off stage, to be a very nice man. Confuses me that he is a republican, but at least he isn't self-righteous.

By: nickandmikec. on 29 Jan 08, 17:00:57
Oh, poor kid, didn't get to go to the zoo. So what. When someone says so easily that another man is a bad man, I have to wonder a little about that. It sounds like you are a right-wing Christian republican to me. It's confusing to me that Glen is just that. A class act, drunk or not.
