Bluegrass on The Knob…

I just got done watching The Edge of Country on GAC.  The episode was devoted to all things Bluegrass.  I loved it because I all too often leave Bluegrass off my list of CD’s to buy or artists to look up.  This is strange considering that any time I’ve caught a live Bluegrass act, I have jammed like there’s no tommorrow (not a pretty picture, just ask my wife).  One of the top concerts of all time for me was when I caught David Grisman with Cadillac Sky opening up for him.  One of the videos that was shown on Edge was “On The Road – Live” from Sam Bush.  It’s a fantastic song, plus the man can sing and play anything with strings, including my shoes, most likely.  You may have noticed that I have videos posted on the left side of your screen. I typically just put clips there that I like and think you might as well, with no real format or thought beyond being random.  In this case, I am making it an (almost) all Bluegrass strip o’ clips.  Please check them out (no, Chad Vader is not a new act from Kentucky or N.C., it’s just funny).  I went with live videos because I feel that Bluegrass jams are best in the live format vs the studio.  Enjoy….

UPDATE:  CMT.com’s blog has a post about a recent trend in the bluegrass world.  He seems to be forgetting about the folks in the videos over to the side of this page that show a very different trend than what he is detailing.
