Didn't realize you'd started a Bluegrass thread. A genre near and dear to my heart. I don't really have a lot, but I like what I got.I love many, many genres of music, but at the top of my list is Bluegrass. It may have something to do with the fact that I was born in KY and live in NC. Anyway, regardless of whatever else I listen to on any given day some Bluegrass will certainly find its way into the mix! Now, I know that I am not the only bluegrass fan out there. So, what are you listening to?
My selections of the day:
Dan Tymnski - Carry Me Across The Mountain
The Tony Rice Unit - Manzanita
Yes, I started it a while back. Surprised that there is so little interest in such an excellent genre. To,each his own, I suppose. It is one of my favorites.Didn't realize you'd started a Bluegrass thread. A genre near and dear to my heart. I don't really have a lot, but I like what I got.
Been playing Dolly Parton's 1999 - 2002 Bluegrass Trilogy today. You'd never know that it took her 35 albums before she did a bluegrass effort. She's a total natural.

Went to a Pickin and Fiddlin Fest in Roxbury CT yesterday. I published a You tube video from the event of 2016 in this thread before as I have few CD's of it. I actually now have 6 and they are all by this man here.
