I love Bluegrass too, I like the music of Alison Krauss, Bela Fleck, Roy Clark, etc., including the recent work by Nickel Creek. Forgive me if I repeat a previous post here, but I thought that Tony Rice's work was good, however some songs don't work. Such as, "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" doesn't translate well to bluegrass.But "Home from the forest", "Ten Degrees," and "16 miles" are fabulous!!!
