Dub Modal Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 2 hours ago, HutchFan said: Yep. Latter-day "hidebound" bluegrass can get really monotonous. In jazz, there's an expectation of (more or less) innovation. That's not the case with bluegrass. In fact, in bluegrass, adherence to tradition is considered a virtue. In that regard, bluegrass has more in common with the Blues (the genre, not the form), rather than jazz. Agreed! I was there last year. My daughter Elena and me at Merlefest. Nice! I've been a couple of times even though I don't consider myself a bluegrass fan. It's a nice festival they've got there. The down home feeling they cultivate due to the entire community being involved is pretty unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Dryden Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 I have an extensive bluegrass collection, including a lot of Tony Rice. I got to see him twice with Norman Blake, though it was after his voice turned gravelly. He was a fine singer and he died too young. How many bluegrass instrumentalists record something like "Nardis," very few, I would bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well - OK then! 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamont Dozier was a capable producer and the lady had a good voice .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
