BLUEGRASS SONGS

Bluegrass is a wonderful, engaging old-time form of country music sung and played by groups made up of such instruments as fiddle, banjo, dobro guitar, mandolin and upright bass. One of the most famous bluegrass instrumentals is DUELIN' BANJOS as featured in the 1972 Burt Reynolds/Jon Voight movie "Deliverance"; this tune was actually FEUDIN' BANJOS written by Arthur 'Guitar Boogie' Smith.
