There's nothing better than a good Jethro YouTube video, and we just spotted one from an Austin City Limits Show from over 20 years ago with Jethro Burns, Johnny Gimble, and Tiny Moore. Eldon Shamblin can be seen in the background playing rhythm guitar. The show featured the David Grisman Quintet, and though he's not in this video segment, and very young pup, Mike Marshall.

The tremendous trio are in full stride in this one. A favorite Jethro line in the show after a rousing welcoming round of applause was when Jethro quipped, "Wow! I have'ng heard that much applause since I told my wife I was going to be gone for two weeks."

If you like this, pick up the classic Back to Back CD. (Highly recommended!)
