I'm enjoying some stuff from Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver. Doyle has been one of the best singers and mandolin players in Bluegrass. He is well versed in secular songs but is just about the best arranger of old-time gospel music.

5/5

"Though a pilgrim on earth I may journey alone
Knowing not what the future may hold may hold
I’d rather have Jesus and sing a sweet song
Than to covet their silver and gold

Stormy water around me and the tempest and fury may roll
But I have my dear Saviour how he helps me nobody can know
When it seems I’m forsaken, and my earthly friends misunderstand
Stormy waters surround me, but I’ll hold to God’s unchanging hand"

Today I am listening to J.D. Crowe and the New South!! J.D. bills himself as the greatest banjo player in the world. I don't know about that, but he certainly plays it as well as anybody living. This band features Ricky Skaggs who replaced Larry Rice and Jerry Douglas on the dobro.

5/5

"It's been ten long years since I left my home
In the hollow where I was born
Where the cool fall nights make the wood smoke rise
And the foxhunter blows his horn

I fell in love with a girl from the town
I thought that she would be true
I ran away to Charlottesville
And worked in a sawmill or two"
