Short Life of Trouble
My fiddle player friend Darin sent me this documentary about GB Grayson, which I enjoyed: The documentary talks about how very few people even recognize the name despite all of recorded tunes essentially becoming standards in today's folk/bluegrass/old-time world and having been covered by extraordinarily huge artists. Gilliam Banmon Grayson (1887-1930) was a blind fiddler from one of the most isolated regions on the East Coast (East Tennessee).
