 * This is called Bluegrass/Newgrass because in more recent years Bluegrass music has become more virtuosic. In the words of one person "it would be impossible to dance to." However, some of the old bluegrass is pretty good too. Well, you'll see. ||
 * This is Earl Scruggs playing Fireball Mail. As you can tell from the video he is an old timer and plays traditional Bluegrass. || [] ||
 * Listen to a newer group, Country Cookin', playing Armadillo in comparison. See if you can hear a difference in style. || [] ||
 * Tony Rice sings Church Street Blues. I'd call this particular version Bluegrass, but often times he is known for being an abstract bluegrass artist because he plays an electric instrument. || [] ||
 * Pete Wernick is well known for playing the banjo. He also teaches others how to play in his style. Observe. || [] ||
 * Alison Kraus is actually an awesome fiddle player as well as a beautiful singer. Here she sings When You Say Nothing At All. She often attends the Telluride festival in Colorado. || [] ||
 * I saved the best for last. Bill Monroe is the original Bluegrass player, and here he kicks it with his mandolin. I just want to watch him play Southern Flavor again and again. || [] ||
