Tony Rice with Bela Fleck - Whitewater

I love how every time Sam Bush’s head goes this way, his hair goes that way.

Loved that little quickie tunable moment at the end there.

A stage full of G.O.A.T.s !!

I had the pleasure of meeting Tony Rice years ago in Tulsa Oklahoma, he was so nice and took a lot of time to chat with everyone around him.

U forgot Sam

This vid is kind of incorrectly named. It's "Strength In Numbers" with Tony Rice.

I miss merlefest

HELP MY FACE IS MELTING

what was the date of that performance? Just unimaginably stellar...

A time before Bela Fleck started playing world music😁

You missed 4 of the greatest musicians of all time in your List of artists.

Nice 👌

still a marvel and a gem to this day

I like how tony looks back at mark at the beginning and is like "is bela out of his mind"

The AAAAAA Team!!

Tks Joe great vid .

Does anybody know where I can find more live versions of the songs from the “Drive” album? Please help

I’m speechless

Blazing a serious trail of smoke.

Just sayin' ... the violin doesn't have frets.

behold the metal gods of bluegrass!!!

Sam was on one 🙏🏻 GOAT

Damn, that two-note repeated figure Tony Rice starts at the beginning of his second solo is like WHERE THE HELL DID THAT COME FROM!!! Just astounding.

What a lineup! These guys scary.

got a lot of bluegrass albums but I listen to something from "DRIVE" most every day!

Great yes, but here come the ladies :Sierra, Molly, Allison, Alison....bluegrass isn't just for boys anymore...

I do some bluegrass on my channel xx

Very few stages have ever had this much overwhelming talent placed on them. This is truly mindblowing stuff I only wish the world knew.

The musical equivalent of chasing a Cheetah !!

Ohhhh yea

Smokin'!🔥

Mark O’Connor- MY GOD- I have been through all of the bluegrass instruments-no words justify how good this guy is- one of the world’s greatest musicians.

Simply the best!!!!

So I have this private narrative that plays out in my head whenever I watch this video. There is one missed note in the whole song. Jerry Douglas accidentally mutes a high string note playing a run near the beginning of his first solo, an unforced error. You can see him sneer at it a little. I think it makes him mad. It makes the whole band attack the song even more aggressively. You cannot convince me that this didn't happen.

Insane banjo and guitar in that playlist!! Holy crap!

Bela Fleck posted an article about Tony after he passed. He said that Tony didn't like rehearsals so they got in one room and recorded the album Drive pretty much live. Get some?

This group supports each other and brings out the best for each. So is the truth with experts I all fields

Sam Bush, the best mandolin player this side of David Grisman, and the best bluegrass banjo, guitar, and arguably fiddle player of all time. It’s a wonder the stage didn’t catch fire

RIP, Tony. Always the Gentleman in the bunch! What a crew.

If you hear this in a concert, pure joy...If you hear this in the woods of West Virginia, get the hell out as fast as possible....

That mandolin player wants to play metal.....trying so hard not to headbang.....

I said got damn

When and Where was this, please? Thanks.

RIP Tony Rice!

Is there a DVD of these jams anywhere? There really ought to be. I'll buy it tonight! I wonder who has the nice, clean recordings?

Give me back 1993 and take away this PC, hypochondriac society. This world is fucked!!!!!
