That was great, thank you!

I like Bluegrass; some of my mother's family played, one uncle made his own banjos. All deceased now, unfortunately, and I have no musical talent myself. I like old country music, I probably heard the Grand Ol' Opry on the radio every Friday and Saturday night of my life, until I was grown. I also like classic rock, Southern rock. It sounds as if we have some similar tastes.

The mixture of music on my iPod most people would probably find to be very odd!

I have no close family left... BUT, my father’s immediate family all played bluegrass.. mandolin, banjo, guitar, bass...

I only have 1 left.. his sister, my aunt. I spoke to her the first time in 25 years about 5 months ago. SHARP as a tack (BTW, she was the mandolin player (and forgive me if my spelling is off.. been in Japan for a long time, even I get l and r mixed up sometimes)).

She told me a bit of family history I was always curious about..

Anyway.. Take care and God Bless us all :)
