I HEAR A VOICE CALLING: A BLUEGRASS MEMOIR
by Gene Lowinger
-
During the final years of Bill Monroe's life, bluegrass fiddler Lowinger took a series of photos of Bill on the road. These photos and others are interwoven into Lowinger's own story of a New Jersey boy obsessed with folk and old-time music; his college trips to see Monroe and other bluegrass masters; his stints as a fiddler for the New York Ramblers, Greenbriar Boys, and Blue Grass Boys; and his memories of playing at the Grand Ole Opry and music festivals. A photographic reflection on Bill Monroe's public and private life, it also testifies to the bluegrass master's profound mentorship and guidance. 75 photos, 160 pp.
