It might just be me,but I think Mr.Emmons could play through a Gorilla bass amp and it still would sound good! I believe it's in his hands!

If any one listened to Eddie Stubbs last night ,he had Johnny Bush as a guest.Johnny made a good statement about new artists and how the sound is not the same as it used to be.(As we all know!!!!) He ...

I feel lucky that I got to perform with Curly Seckler at a bluegrass show in Etowah,TN and then listen to Buddy on the way home. It sure made my day perfect!!! (Curly was an original Foggy Mtn Boy)

I play bass as well as PSG,and the jazz quartet I play with was given a chart to play by the brides mother at a wedding gig we had a few years ago.This THING she wanted to hear was called "The Abba Da ...

On the WSM Online website,it clearly states;"Committed to Country! Always have been,Always will be".If the dumb#$$es at Gaylord make their changes,could we as country music fans bring up a law suit? I ...

I started getting interested in playing music by listening to my grandfather talk about his "nightclub"days.(He owned the old Wagon Wheel in Nashville. He also played sax....this was in the late '30s) ...

I'm sorry,I probably should have put this topic under Steel Players.

While I struggled through listening to the CMA awards,I was in awe of a steeler in a band ( I can't remember who he was playing behind;or even if he was actually playing!)that was "dancing",so to spea ...

Back in the '60s,the Osborne Bros. used steel alot (Hal Rugg).That was part of their "signature sound". Remember that Rocky Top had steel all throughout.(A #1 bluegrass song in my part of the woods!)I ...

The way things are going,she could be on CMT!

What is wrong with being feminine? I personally don't see what the problem could be? I think Bobbe is a smart business man.

He does have good taste in co-pilots!!! Look at his new site.P.S. I suddenly have the urge to drive 2hrs to get a pack of strings!!![This message was edited by GORDY NICHOL on 31 August 2001 at 03:44 ...

Not only is Herby a great player,but a great teacher as well! I owe my progress to him. Correct me if I'm wrong,but didn't he have the first "Mass produced" tab instruction for Emmons Guitar back in t ...

In my view,it is not the change of the music the Nashville people want as much as to obtain the all important " Kid Dollars". CMT is showing this this to us,not only by the obvious MTV style open foru ...

I don't think it really matters what Cagle thinks as much as what his producer thinks!Those cats call the shots!

What we need for the masses is another Ricky Skaggs! Somebody that has respect for the standards and the drive to change things.Maybe Brad Paisley could do this for the young crowd as well as for the ...

"Don't Leave Your Records in the Sun" is one of my favorite J.H. songs. He is a true entertainer and people could learn a lot from him. I know I have. My prayers to him and his family.

Ya'll would not expect something as small as breaking the law and threatening a police officer to upset the career of Mr.& Mrs.Perfect-Country Music???????????

I was born in Nashville,and always looked forward to visiting my grandparents and aunts and uncles on holidays. My grandparents lived on Franklin Rd.not far from Harding Place. I remember the Music Ci ...

I saw him here in CHA once . A good entertainer and songwriter,well known in the bluegrass community . He will be sadly missed.
