Thanks for sharing. "Attaboy" was actually a free Starbucks download a couple of weeks ago. Definitely didn't expect to see Thile staring back at me on the register.

As a boy from Eldorado, Arkansas, that certainly set my shoeless feet a-tappin'!

Day-um! Powerful stuff. What's that album called?

Yep, that's it. I should have mentioned it in the first post.

 

Also, for those who thought the same thing I did, that odd looking, fretted, 6 string violin that Thile is playing at the beginning is a Viol, or "Viola de Gamba". I wouldn't mind trying to make a CBG variant...

Full circle - Classical instruments originated as Folk instruments, Classical music comes from Folk music songs so it is not really surprising that this ensemble's Bluegrass music works so well, amazing performance! ***** (-:

I'm really glad people enjoyed it as much as I did. Due to a recent layoff, its hard to justify buying albums, but as soon as I can I'm going to pick it up.
