Didn't look like him first time I watched it. I'll just stand corrected and move on to greener Kentucky pastures.Nope, that's Earl in the video too. He died in 2012.
I was going by this article.Jerry Scoggins sang the opening and closing themes for the Beverly Hillbillies. Jerry Scoggins - Wikipedia
I watched the Steve Martin video you posted not too long ago. Because of that I watched some Scruggs videos and recognized him. I love bluegrass, but I hardly know what many of the musicians look like. Ricky Skaggs, Bill Monroe, Doc Watson, Scruggs, Allison Krause and a few others are all I know. I did get to see Doc Watson in a very all venue with his son and some other pickers I didn't know much about. Very glad I got to see him play.Didn't look like him first time I watched it.
