Well, I'm skeptical. Sounds like rock 'n' roll sour grapes to me. Neil Young, Gram Parsons, and John Fogerty seem to be about as far away from Merle Travis and the Carter Family as the Moon is from Topeka, Kansas Got any old time string bands on the roster, artists like Raef Steffininni, or Steffen Senders, or Carol Elizabeth Jones? Or do you gotta play with your instruments all plugged in and spread out on a stage big as a city block?
