These are some of the finest musicians around that play the true Appalachian string band music. This sound is very much what my group New River Bound is influenced/inspired by... though the guitar is doing the heavy lifting here, try and imagine what a bassline underneath that groove would sound like, and that's what we're shooting for.

I am thinking that a coffee house cover version of this tune might work  well for this tune in the Berkeley /Oakland California Coffee house Scene . I Like this guys bass playing in the visceral scene of perception  ,

I am  following and listening to the entire Soundcloud selections of Michael Manring ;  He is always so amazing to hear live and on recordings!  I went to one of his clinics in the early 1990's at Gelb Music and  I have been a  fan ever since.

Greg; that was nice.  I see that those folks are all from Asheville; maybe I'll run across them sometime.

As I write this I'm listening to The Pizza Tapes with Jerry Garcia, David Grisman, and Tony Rice at a speed of 591 mph at an altitude of 36,695 feet on my Pono with noise canceling Audio-Technica headphones.  Technology can be cool!
 
Bill, tfgo (the flying guitar one)

Yeah, but can you do that while eating an actual pizza?

Hey Bill if you can get them to speed up just a bit past 768 MPH  maybe y'all be listening to a nice sonic boom .

This is where digital really sucks; no chance for a wiseass remark about about how high 33 1/3 rpm sounds spinning at 591mph.......

Last night I watched the first set of the second night of Phil's 1977 tribute, with special guest John Mayer.
 
The lineups for these shows is always changing; there is no set band that has played the songs together for a while.  And some of the Dead material is difficult.
 
So I'm watching last night and they do Sunrise!  Very rare performance.  Even Phil and Stu were glued to their music stands reading the chart.  At one point Phil is looking around at the other players as if wondering what happens next.
 
For those unfamiliar with the tune, here is the .
 
Singing it this time was Jeannette Ferber, and she did very well.  The whole set is .
