Earl Scruggs |

I'm sitting here, with tears in my eyes, listening to the live broadcast, from the Ryman, on WSM, of Earl Scruggs' funeral. I feel as if i have lost one of The Drovers.
I can't even begin to explain how important Earl has been to my life the last 25 years. When I started this band. Flatt & Scruggs' Greatest Hits, on Columbia Records, was like our Bible. We learned every singing song on that record.
As we got more and more into the music, I studied every note of the recordings Earl made with Bill Monore and The Bluegrass Boys. Those recordings are the true beginning of Blugrass. I wanted us to have THAT sound. I put my electric guitar away. I devoted the next 25 years to being the best bluegrass musician I could be.
Three years ago, the band took a "field trip" to Shelby, NC to see Earl perform in his home town. We were as excited as little kids. Just as the "field trips" we took to see Bill Monroe, back in the 80's, it was more than going to a concert. We were reaffirming our love for bluegrass. To be a part of something that defined what we are.
God bless you Earl. And thank you. I'm gonna miss you. The Drovers are gonna miss you.
