Extractions: Bluegrass Unlimited Bill Monroe (1911 - 1996) Bill Monroe "the Father of Bluegrass" lives on. But Bill Monroe, the man, has spent his last days on earth. He died on September 9, 1996, in Springfield, Tenn., at the of 84, four days short of his 85th birthday. Much has already been written about this remarkable individual. More will be in the days and years ahead. An artistic giant, his personal creation of a distinctive genre stands as an unprecedented accomplishment in the history of American popular music. William Smith Monroe was born on September 13, 1911, on Jerusalem Ridge near the little town of Rosine, in the hills of Ohio County, Ky. He was the youngest of eight children of James Buchanan Monroe (1857- 1928) and Malissa Vandiver Monroe (1870-1921). His father, a farmer who raised crops, mined coal, and cut timber on his land, was a fine dancer; his mother played accordion, harmonica, and fiddle. At age 10, Bill took up the mandolin. (His older, musically-inclined siblings had already laid claim to the more desired fiddle and guitar.) He got pointers on the instrument from Hubert Stringfield, who farmed on the Monroe land. Later Bill evolved his own approach, combining melody ideas from hoedown fiddling with blues guitar picking a formidable chorded rhythm chop. Bill was occasionally lorded over by his siblings. Having poor vision and crossed eyes, he was often teased by strangers and unable to participate in many childhood activities. His vision was later corrected, but a proud desire to prove his worth - and a "lonesome" feeling that was to so characterize bluegrass - burned within him.

Bill Monroe: Anthology - PopMatters Music Review

Extractions: comment on this article Bill Monroe is the root of all the branches that make up contemporary bluegrass music. Whether you're speaking about Ricky Skaggs, Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs, Peter Rowan, or Del McCoury, the roads all lead through an apprenticeship with Monroe's supporting band. To loosely put it into baseball terms, Monroe is easily the Babe Ruth of bluegrass, minus the carousing and controversy. For this compilation, which spans more than three decades and features some fifty tracks, you get the best he had to offer. And by Jove, he wasn't lying. The first disc begins with "New Mule Skinner Blues", the Jimmie Rodgers song Monroe recorded in February, 1950. It's a straightforward track that is deep in bluegrass, with Monroe's high notes and yodeling the biggest asset. Given the length of the song, which clocks in a tad over two minutes, it seems the perfect amount of time to showcase Monroe's truly incredible wares. Rudy Lyle's banjo and Vassar Clements' fiddle are also strong points. "My Little Georgia Rose" keeps the passion going and has a bit more Southern swing to it. "Uncle Pen", one of Monroe's signature songs, was recorded just eight months after the first two offerings. But already he had made changes within the group. The harmonies tend to overshadow the song as Monroe tones down vocally. The initial instrumental is "Raw Hide" and rips through the listener with frantic yet meticulous styles of playing by all musicians, including Monroe's mandolin. "Panhandle Country" and "Roanoke" are other shining moments appearing later on during this first disc. "Kentucky Waltz" is a breather in the record as the singer stretches a bit while singer.
