Another Bluegrass waltz. I like Norman and Nancy Blake's version best and tried to do something in that vein, but is this still Bluegrass?
Happy to be able to sneak another one here for you Trent! This one is a Graham Parsons composition, but I discovered it being done by a bluegrass singer named A.J. Lee playing along with a very talented family of musicians called the Tuttles. I highly recommend you check out their stuff on Youtube. Anyway, it's called Hickory Wind. . . Linda is going to try and add something and if she can we'll submit a duet of this one.
I get a message saying the video is unavailable....
Also, since were posting bluegrass versions of stuff that isn’t bluegrass, you’ve all heard of Steve’n’Seagulls, right?
Maybe disqualified because of the drums. I like this one because I have a soft spot for AC/DC, but they have some other stuff up on YT that’s just banjo and upright bass.
Alternative Bluegrass...Still bluegrass? I don't know but I have found a ton of new music this week. Introducing The Hackensaw Boys.
The original was a 19th C. British Music Hall song. It was adapted by Monroe and given a rather mawkish third verse in which the girl he finds via the footprints dies and goes to heaven. I wonder if that was influenced by Monroe reading about Dickens' Little Nell dying. I always hated that verse.
