Thread Name: Old Songs Newly Found
Subject: RE: Old Songs Newly Found
Don't This Road Look Rough and Rocky has been around as a Bluegrass standard for a long time. Flatt and Scruggs released it in 1954 and put their names on it but it seems the song goes back a lot farther. When I heard Meghan Dudle sing it recently it dawned on me that it is a truly wonderful song. Lovely vocals and sweet mandolin. It's on her 2010 You Are Always In My Dreams CD. She's also a heck of an old time fiddler.
