Big diff Odin ! ! !
Blues is more southern (USA) black music, lots of white folks picked up on it, etc......
Bluegrass is more white folks, but seems to be, definitely has to include a "mandoline" and "fiddle"
and the beat is more faster than blues ......
Sometinng like that ..................................
It is not the matter, nor, the space between the matter,
but rather, it is that finite point at which the two meet,
that, and only that, is what is significant...........
(Of course, I could be wrong) ..........

I think that's where the term "cover tune" comes from - white folks playing black style music, like Elvis, etc.

Guitar picker, been playing most my life, in and out of bands. Rock and blues mostly. Trying a new direction with a sonic keyboard player from the last band (Berkeley School of music type) doing all original jamband type stuff. We'll see where that goes, love that free form improvisational kind of stuff with a good groove to get lost in. Moe, Umphries McGee, Stringcheese Incident, them types.

Always just for fun tho, never made enough to cover much more than a bar bill and gas money.

Rclark12,
I know what you mean it seems the new stuff has been homogenized into the top 40 pop, hard to tell where one starts and the other ends. and it dont have that sound that strikes our heart the way the old stuff does.

Music is very diverse indeed, but there is one tune WE ALL should love, as it represents the common interest we all have and what brought us here! minus the commercial aspect.

Gotta love the Stanley Brothers:

BD,
Ry Cooder was on my radar in the 80s for a while, then this last November i caught a documentary about when him and his son went to Cuba to record the old time Cuban style musians and interview them about their lives and music... so i bought the Buena vista social club album, it is great. i never knew he went into the India style, thanks for sharing that... i have several albums of various India music. it is always cool to watch certain artists who go beyond the borders of their main Genre and explore different style. :thumbup: :thumbup:

My Favorite though of Ry Cooder was the song " the girls from Texas" a song with a moral.

I was digging around in a box of old tapes and up popped Cooder's A Meeting by the River. Completely forgot about it but glad I rediscovered it. I also really like when cultures collide and new branches blooms. I saw that Buena Vista documentary, it was pretty awesome.

That Marshal Tucker song's one of the best ever written. There's a great live version of it on utube.

written in 1650 as the ballad of patrick flemming, a little before the rovers.
metallica's version is my favorite.

All this talk of southern fried rock and roll got me crankin up some Duane Allman

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pV8RoNePzfI" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" rel="nofollow

And then that makes me want to hear some modern insanity on the git fiddle with Jimmy Herring, amazing guitarist... stepped into Allman Brothers when Dickie was arrested, then went on to play with too many big names to list. Playing now with Widespread Panic . Holy shit this guy is amazing, he's playing at UIC in Chicago Friday night with Panic, so if I get my god damned taxes done tomorrow gonna treat myself with a ticket to go see him Friday!

yep i knew it was real old ... but not the specific details... kind of interesting to think...
about the timelessness of some music. if 1650 is the date that is like 35 years before
JS Bach was born, whom is well recognized and documented, yet, Patrick Flemming although not
as well known, definitely wrote a timeless piece.
