  What a shame. At least he reconciled with Lester a while back. May he RIP.

  I grew up listening to that kind of music. He sure could make music on that banjo! RIP Mr. Scruggs. :angel2:
  
  Something you may not have heard. Earl Scruggs and The Chieftains playing "Sally Goodin'". If this don't get your feet to movin', then nothing will!

  He was one of the best modern day banjo pickers. One of the best ever, I guess. I never heard him play in person but once I got to hear Eddie Peabody, whom most agreed was the best of all time.
  
  RIP Earl.
