Various Artists - 100 Bluegrass Favourites Various Artists
Pickup currently unavailable at Dawson Street
Bluegrass music is one of America’s most vibrant and enduring folk traditions, a music born of the mountains, shaped by migration, and sustained by the spirit of storytelling.
With its high, lonesome harmonies and dazzling instrumental drive, bluegrass captures the pulse of rural life and the poetry of human experience.
This four-disc collection, 100 Bluegrass Favourites, brings together the pioneering artists and landmark recordings that defined the genre, from its earliest stirrings in the 1930s and ’40s through its golden years in the decades that followed.
