Tony Rice :: Nine Pound Hammer



Tony Rice on vocals and guitar, Sam Bush on mandolin, Jerry Douglas on dobro, and Mark O'Connor on fiddle. These are among the finest bluegrass musicians in America in my opinion. This video was taken some years ago -- Jerry Douglas looks like a baby!

  3. Yes, a true loss. He is still playing, and can talk, but his singing voice is wrecked, which is a shame as he's only 58. It could come back; stanger things have happened, but ....
