Vintage Josh Graves with Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs - Video
PUBLISHED:  Jul 05, 2015
DESCRIPTION:
This random, motley set of Josh with Lester and Earl is for the true Josh fan. Sound and image quality varies, because even the best '50s sources lack HD quality -- so, no apologies! The playing is topnotch, IMHO. A few songs don't have Josh on Dobro. Either he was "simply" playing fills, or he was playing bass. Regardless, he was always a joy to hear, or see.

There's a whole boatload of their music at tela.sugarmegs.org . Search by artist (first name, last name) alphabetically. Do a keyword search on name, song title, instrument, etc. If that's not enough, go to Take's Bluegrass Album Channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3HEfPXzoNc1dH-QMjlAGbQ Download! And have fun!
