Wow. One the greatest Bluegrass musicians to have ever lived is gone.

Goodbye Earl.

Flatt and Scruggs are together again in the great Bluegrass band in the sky.

This is stated to be a recording of his 1948 (possibly 1949) performance of Foggy Mountain Breakdown that I attached. This is some seriously masterful shit.

Some of the most wonderful vinyl I've had and enjoyed since childhood.

A long life of admiration and respect. Big bucket of win.

I can name three banjo players--Earl Scruggs, Steve Martin, and the weird kid from Deliverance.
