Carl Fleischhauer has been the brilliant and indefatigable photo-chronicler of Bluegrass music for almost half a century, and Neil Rosenberg has likewise been the only historian of Bluegrass worth reading. Sadly, this opus seems to be mostly leavings from many other books, recordings, and lectures, with no discernable direction motivation other than getting another book into print. Those who know Bluegrass won't see or read much that they don't already know, while those unfamiliar with it will gain little sense of that special, wonderful (and occasionally nightmarish) world which is Bluegrass.

This is a portrayal of the breadth and depth of bluegrass, from its fans and followers to its performers - including Bill Monroe, 'the father of Bluegrass music' - in a readable and panoramic photo-documentary of an American form of popular music. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Someone looking for a more thorough history of the music would indeed be better served by one of Rosenberg's other books. But this book is valuable in its own right.

Revised comment on reread, 10/31/2019: I like Rosenberg's essays better this time, viewing them more as comments on the photographs than an attempt at history. And Fleischhauer's concluding note about photographing bluegrass musicians and festivals really struck a nerve; it's much like my experience doing the same thing. Carl's photographs are truly delightful. ( )
