Aikenrooster Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 If you listen to Bluegrass, then you know who he is. I'd argue that he was "the voice of Bluegrass", at least in our lifetimes. RIP. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP. :( I was away for a bit when this thread was started, and I just now saw it...I had no idea.  I saw Ralph Stanley at a local festival one time, must have been about 15 years ago or more, by now.  He was a singular, amazing talent.  RIP, Clinch Mountain man.

RIP. He and Bill Monroe were the titans of the form. I'd maybe include Doc Watson with them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
