Bill Monroe for Christmas

Jim Moss's electronic bluegrass newsletter reports that his website now features a transcribed interview with Jim Peva (see post below, 'Bill Monroe stamp campaign continues') and Roland White (Kentucky Colonels, Blue Grass Boys, Country Gazette, Nashville Bluegrass Band, etc.), together with a short 7 meg mp3 file of a recording made at Jim Peva's house on 14 December 1968. After dinner Bill Monroe, Roland, Kenny Baker, and Birch Monroe got out their instruments and played 'Christmas time's a-comin'', 'A beautiful life', and 'Big Sandy River'. Find out why there's no banjo in the interview at this link. While you're there, sample the other goodies on Jim Moss's site.
