This week on The Bluegrass Review:
03/13/10 - Our show opens with a couple of new bluegrass songs. Then, the Gem of Bluegrass segment muses over the evolution of bluegrass into a concert music. Later, great banjo stylist Alan Munde tells us about his method of composition. Then, it’s more happy sounding sad songs. We’re starting to think this type of song is one of bluegrass music’s great contributions to world music.
