Saw a friend yesterday that had been gone from my sight these past 8 years

asked me how I was, how things have been with me.

Well, I say, I'm still kicking but I can't lie, things could be better...

Day drinking to Blues and Bluegrass...

Such as whom? I dig bluegrass but haven't really dug too deep. The only bluegrass I own is a bunch of Yonder Mountain String Band. Any suggestions?

Flatt & Scruggs

Truth is I love the guitar banjo mandolin Bluegrass but the fiddle and the Yodel vocals? Not so much

Even though he was known as a country performer - Jerry Reed could pickit

The bongos are an odd choice - but WTH it was the 60s

I love Jerry! He's one of the few country artists on my long list of "shit I need to buy". And thanks for the starting point on who to check out!
