Quote of the month

One thing I liked about the [Bill] Monroe style was that there was a lot more blues in it than other styles of bluegrass. It was darker. It had more of an edge to it. And yet it still had the ballad tradition in it, and I loved that.

Peter Rowan, featured artist of the month in the current Colorado Case Company newsletter, and lead singer for Bill Monroe & the Blue Grass Boys in the 1960s
