I don’t think you’ll find Ricky performing on The View, but that would be something to see.

I remember playing Ricky's Country Boy over the radio when it first came out in 1984 or '85 along with his many other hits and great album cuts.

Have lot of faves.

Someone stole my Ricky Skaggs so that tell ya something right there..

Tony Rice is the one that floors me on this stuff.

I have been listening to this stuff since before the birth of rock and roll.

I like Ricky and I like bluegrass. But I couldn’t hear any sign of a banjo during that performance. So why was it billed as bluegrass?

I watched it last night. It. Was. Fan. TASTIC!!!! Emily Ann was not one of my favorites this season (by a long shot), but I thought that performance was perhaps the best of the entire season, by any contestant, and that was 99% due to your cousin’s incredible picking and energy! It was definitely the surprise of the night! I remember thinking that most of the kids in the audience and watching at home were probably dumbfounded at how awesome “country” music could sound. And The Voice’s coaches seemed so appreciative of the skill that both Emily Ann and Mr. Skaggs displayed, especially Pharrell...I think he was really blown away and totally into the performance. Emily Ann and Ricky absolutely left it all on the table, which is what those constants are always coached to do. It was spectacular.

Thanks for letting us know about your cool connection, tang-soo!

Ricky Skaggs is a true Country Musician.

Not like this crap they pass off as "country" today.
