Earl Scruggs 1924 - 2012

[dfergie]

A pioneering banjo player who helped create modern country music, his sound is instantly recognizable and as intrinsically wrapped in the tapestry of the genre as Johnny Cash's baritone or Hank Williams' heartbreak.

I was very saddened hearing of his passing, he will be missed.

He was a 3-finger banjo picker that made the banjo a lead/solo instrument, very enjoyable.
