Any bluegrassers?

Anyone here into bluegrass music and/or related genres?

Would you kill me if I said I liked everything on the soundtrack of O Borther Where Art Thou?

 

[16017]

Nope it's a good film. Good soundtrack as well. Lots of my heroes on there. Dan Tyminski, Ron Block (banjo - actually appears in the film), Jerry Douglas (dobro god), Curtis Burch (also a dobro god), Alison Krauss, Norman Blake (!!!). Not the greatest bluegrass ever, but it fits the film perfectly, and the musicianship is great.

I am a huge Alison Krauss fan - loved the stuff with union station!

Some good stuff there. Jerry Douglas is one of my heroes, Dan has THE voice, and Ron Block...well...

I have jammed with Ron Block
