Tony Rice & Norman Blake- Playin, and Singin’

Here’s one for all you flatpicking fans

Norman Blake and Tony Rice with the “New River Train”

This video was uploaded in 2008 but rest assured, this is a lot earlier than that. I’m guessing early 80, maybe even the late 70’s? (help me out here folks).

Well, it’s been some time since Tony sang…

and even though he’s done so many shows with various artists just on guitar, this video really brings back all the good memories of just how great he was vocally.

This particular song and the sound that Blake and Rice get reminds me of the old country duet singing like the Louvin Brothers.. (well, with two guitars instead).

Enjoy!

And do let me know if you like these kind of videos, I will post more!
