Just heard an excellent program on the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) regarding mandolins, Monroe and bluegrass. It is largely based around a presentation given by Mike Compton and Steve Gilchrist early this year in Albany, Western Australia.
I happened to have the pleasure of being there for the workshop, but the ABC have done a great job at enhancing the story with some excellent old recordings and excerpts from interviews with Monroe.
You can listen to it at the address below.
