Looking for some 'grass



What's the best Bluegrass group, album, CD, or cut, you've heard in some time?

Please do mention if it is by content, or quality of the recording.... SACD, DVDA, etc.

It is hard to get past efforts from Skaggs & Krauss naturally, but I do favor the "Will The Circle Be Unbroken" volumes from the Dirt Band & friends.

But I will try a few here anyhow.

"Mountain Soul" from Patty Loveless... and "Little Sparrow" by Dolly Parton are super overall.

Charlie Sizemore's efforts as well should be considered at the very least.

Melonie Cannons last two CDs are noteable works also.

So there...

Who, what, or Which, do you like most as of late, or just overall?

The Red Clay Ramblers are worth checking out. At one point - mid 1980's? - someone built a full Broadway musical around the band. As a special bonus, the main Rambler has one of the best names in showbiz "Bland Simpson". Bland is a terrific songwriter and if your taste also runs to pop music/female vocals, the wonderful singer Marti Jones does a first class cover version of Simpson's "Follow You All Over The World".
