Damn good album!

6. Earl could still flat out nail it then.

In recent years he was so frail, it pained me to see them lead him out to play the Foggy Mtn Breakdown.

He taught all of us banjo pickers how it's done. RIP, Earl.

Martin's competent, but that's about it. He was way over his head there with Earl and Pete Wernick.

7. Love "Foggy Mountain Breakdown"

And I grew up listening to Flatt and Scruggs and others like them. That is why I feel that this is a bastardized version of that great tune. Schaeffer and his piano are not Bluegrass and do not belong.

8. K&R! This is just wonderful!

9. Wonderful. A congrats to Steve Martin on the birth of his child.

He's so private that he and his wife were able to have a baby and no one in Hollywood or the tabloids knew about it. Definately a throwback to a classier age.
