      XPost: alt.banjo, rec.music.country.old-time       From: fritz@spamexpire-200910.rodent.frell.theremailer.net              (Wall Street Journal) - Ralph Stanley, the hillbilly (his       term) musician best known for his 2002 Grammy-winning       rendition of "O Death" in the Coen brothers movie "O       Brother Where Art Thou?," may be 82 years old and play       songs nearly as ancient as the southwest Virginia hills       where he was born (and still lives). But after all these       years his tongue is still sharp, as he shows in "Man of       Constant Sorrow," (Amazon.com: http://xrl.us/ManSorrow ) a       memoir that may send some cowboy hats spinning along       Nashville's Music Row. Dr. Stanley, as he likes to be known       — the doctorate is honorary, from Lincoln Memorial       University in Harrogate, Tenn. — dispenses a few lashes       along with his rollicking account of 60 years as a banjo-       picking bluegrass performer, though none will do lasting       harm..              Continued: http://xrl.us/ManSorrow2              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
