After sampling a piece of new bluegrass, we play a couple of songs with nearly the same themes and very nearly the same titles. The songs were recorded over a half century apart, and listening to them now offers a good indication of some ways bluegrass has changed. Then, on our Gem of Bluegrass, Lyle Lofgren Adam Granger and host Phil Nusbaum speculate on the earliest influences on Bill Monroe’s bluegrass. Later in the show, we present Monroe’s mature musical style. The playlist is located at www.bluegrassreview.com. Join the Bluegrass Review discussion on Facebook.
