Strong, strong connection between bluegrass and Irish/Celtic music.

This is a fun one about a mother trying to marry off her daughter.

 

 

 

 

"Well Sadie's momma told her your nearly 21

its time to find a man to settle down

She prettied up her auburn hair, put on her best perfume

and headed for the dance down town

oh Sadie's got her new dress on, Lord Lord

Sadie's got her new dress on

Her momma done and said, shes old enough to wed

Sadie's got her new dress on"

papa, thanks for sharing that. I'm going to go listen to that album, and yes that is what I still call them anyway.

Great stuff.

 

There were two "Old Plank Road" compilations. The first one was a bit better.

Always enjoyed these folks:

 

Totally dig the Bluegrass elements that run throughout this intense Denver based Christian band Sixteen Horsepower's extensive body of work.

 

Denver native and seriously Christian "David Eugene Edwards" is the lead singer/songwriter, while the bass player and drummer are two dudes from France.

 

These 3 tunes are just a few of the many good examples of how "SH" employ the Bluegrass sound in their many releases.

That is pretty cool, OlDog. I've never heard of them before. I like the old timey "claw hammer" style of banjo pickin, and who wouldn't like a guy who plays the jug and spoons at the same time?

Some of you know them as The Darlin Boys from the Andy Griffith show. They were actually a real bluegrass band named The Dillards. They had a great sound.

Awesome!!!

 

The Oh Brother concert tour came to Lexington and it was fantastic. I sat right behind Mr Wildcat, Bill Keightly and his wife that night and enjoyed talking to him about as much as listening to all the perfomances. Great collection of performers.

Bluegrass tones are demonstrated nicely in this lovely infectious "Great Lake Swimmers" tune "Your Rocky Spine"

 

Awesome!!!

Are you talkin' about the "Down From The Mountain" tour at Rupp? If so I was there in the 10th row on the floor, and before the show began T-Bone Burnett was strutting around through the audience in his black suit and shades.

That was the one. Great night of music.

 

I especially enjoyed the Fairfield Four singing Po' Lazarus. Awesome.

Real nice version of "Wayfaring Stranger"
