BTW, I cannot bring myself to call Kenneth Burns "Jethro" nor can I find any reason to call dobro master "Buck" Graves "Uncle Josh". Many Country musicians had to adopt a comedy persona in order to make a living. Now they deserve more respect. My opinion only.

I knew Jethro Burns a liitle bit. We met on a number of occasions long after his Homer & Jethro years. The first time we met, he introduced himself to me as "Jethro." We had a number of mutual friends and I never heard him refer to himself, or heard any of his friends, as anything but "Jethro."

Only years later, after he'd passed away I think, when David Grisman's Acoustic Disc Records released some recordings under the name 'Kenneth "Jethro" Burns,' did I learn that Jethro was not his real name.
