Subject: RE: Obit: Blue Grass Singer Dian James (18 May 06)
When I was growing up in NYC the Greenbriar Boys were a huge influence - great music and more accessible to us city kids than the more hardcore bluegrass of the earlier bluegrass pioneers. When the album with Dian came out it was a no-brainer to get it, and it very much lived up to my expectations.
Sorry to hear of Dian's passing. The album is a fine legacy to this wonderful singer.
