GRASS ANYONE?

david: good to see you're expanding your musical horizons (another girlfriend?). please forget the "hee hah" bit, however; folks will think you're some kinda' upstate ny hick. anyway, a couple of suggestions. first, "nickel creek," a euponymous album by three youngsters from san diego is a fresh and easy to-listen-to album of new and classic bluegrass that is well worth adding to any collection. second, i suggest you try a couple of samplers from acoustic disc, the label owned by david grishman. they are called: "acoustic disc:100% handmade music." you can get a good idea of several sub-genre to see what may interest you; for a listing of available cd's see:

Kelly,nope,same galfriend!
I am a upstate NY hick and DANG proud of it!
Thanks for the 'tips' guys...please keep 'em comin y'all!
HEE HAH!! C|:~) thats a cowboy hat on my head btw.

Anything by the Seldom Scene, highly recommemded. Anything by Mike Auldridge. Dolly Parton's last two albums are superb. Doc and Merle Watson. The soundtrack "O Brother Where Art Thou". Anything by Del McCrory. Steve Earle has a killer blugrass album, can't remember the title right now, its all acoustic. Allison Kraus, Jerry Garcia "Old and in the Way". Bela Fleck is even doing Bluegrass on recent albums. Hope this helps.

Well I do not hold myself out to be a BG xpert but since you got me here under false pretenses I'll drop a few winners. Not exactly bluegrass but all music by BGers. Give a listen to: Anything by Clarence White, the man who changed time in blue grass; Tony Rice and David Grisman: "Tone Poems" and ; Tony Rice and Norman Blake "Blake and Rice". All nice stuff ifin you like martin geetar flat picking. I think cfb meant David Grisman too, one of the best mandolin pickers south of frog holla.

Sincerely, I remain

yeah clueless,I'za figgered I'd git some uh ya boyz in heaya whit dat thread title.
