The Valentines’ Woo Woo Train is one of my favorites. Lily Maybelle is pretty good, too.

Flatt and Scruggs were unrecognized by the hipkids of the day, and that is there loss. I get that Bluegrass isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but the musicianship and accuracy cannot be denied. And just LISTEN to those lovely tube amps doing their lovely analog thing.
All the links are delicious as well.
