Their rendition of "Tennessee Stud" is pathetic. Doc Watson would puke, and I damn near did myself.

BTW, there actually was a group called "The Good Old Boys". Jerry Garcia cooked it up.

I think you mean "Old and in the Way." This was Jerry's Bluegrass band and they were totally amazing. As a city kid I had never heard bluegrass until Jerry came to town with this hillbilly shit.

By the time the show finished I was in awe of this music. Just great stuff.

BTW one of my favorite songs is Tennessee Stud.
