I have heard bits and pieces of bluegrass many times in my life...by who, I do not know. In fact, I have been to BG festivals. I just don't know the artists. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. And as always, the old school (70s) is prefered. Thanks

I'm jealous- I remember when I first started getting into bluegrass music. Three things I highly recommend to get going: 1. Flatt and Scruggs (classic: "Foggy Mountain Breakdown") 2. Bill Munroe (classic: "Blue Moon of Kentucky") 3. www.ibma.org (history, resources, links, etc.) "Old School" for bluegrass is a lot earlier than the 70s Have fun!

I have a banjo (and a mandolin, and my papa played the fiddle and the accordion)...and my teeth are fine, thank you very much. I comes from the extreme north end of the Appalachians...a holler the folks at home like to call New York. Here's the deal- y'all limeys quit makin' fun of Bluegrass and I won't bring up Morris Dancing and Peter, uh...hmm...there's not much in the way of silly Canadian folk traditions, is there? I guess I'll have to resort to holding Anne Murray, Celine Dion, Shania Twain, k.d. lang, Alanis Morissette and Sarah McLachlan over your head |

Who rattled your cage Gweg? references to Bluegrass Music should be made on the appropriate forum: eg the Inbreeders United Forum or the Country Cousins Of America Forum.

Hey greg- let the Brits have their laugh...so far most of the jokes have concerned bad teeth and an insular gene pool. Maybe next they'll make fun of our bland cuisine, football riots and feeble aristocracy |

Hmmmm... First, get a jug of shine and get her all liquored up! Then...
Silly me. Try this: Put "bluegrass" in Google, hit "enter," see what comes up. Must be plenty of good websites dedicated to bluegrass.... I listen to lots of Celtic, but hardly any real bluegrass -- though I can vouch for the "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou" soundtrack. |
