I saw these guys incl Skaggs and Jerry Douglas at a hole in the wall in New Dundee, Ont. in ‘77 or ‘78. We literally had no idea who they were. There was no cover. No tip jar. I actually sat at a table with my back to the “stage” 5 ft behind me but kept turning my head because I realized I was hearing the greatest bluegrass I had ever heard ( in my young life). I will never forget it. I will say, however, that I’d forgotten what a good singer Ricky Scaggs was.
I was there. First time I’d ever heard any of these guys. Thanks so much for putting it up to enjoy again!
