What a fine player! What a sad day. He was part of a duo and his partner was Lester Flatts. Don't know if he is still around. They played bluegrass and country when country was country and not rock in disguise. I saw and heard them play in St. Louis when I was a boy.
Earl Scruggs with his son Randy and the Earl Scruggs Revue, introduced bluegrass to many folks who would not otherwise have listened to the genre. One of my favorite pickers for sure. Pick on, Brother Earl, pick on.
Mr. Scurggs was a great player. Probably one of the best. He starred in a duo with Lester Flatt. I remember seeing them in concert and hearing their records played in my home as a boy. They played bluegrass and country when country was country and not rock and roll with a twang in disguise.
