Alison Krauss and Union Station do a great version of Cluck Old Hen on an album called Restless.

I grew up in the heart of bluegrass country, my dad was a bluegrass musician. He played some with Don Reno, who was from near here. I've been playing bluegrass and all other sorts of music all my life. I've jammed with some fairly well-known pickers. Some of my favorite bluegrass pickers/singers are Tony Rice, Ralph Stanley, Doc Watson, old Flatt and Scruggs, old Newgrass Revival. There are a lot of good local bluegrass bands and pickers around here, some well-known nationally, and some great pickers who never play out in public.

  I am like pat I have diverse list of types of music, that I like.  From Classical, South American guitar, Flute music, harp music, hard acid rock, blues, and Blue Grass, and country.  I prefer instrumental Blue grass, but some vocals are good also, but I am definitely with Eddie on the Country.  The old "Real" country music.  Kitty Wells, Hank Snow, Jimmy Rodgers, Doc Watson, Patsy Kline, The Carters, Bill Monroe,etc.  And the same goes for Country Western, Tex Ritter, and the Sons of the Pioneers, etc. I don't bother listening to the modern versions of it.  Very few performers that interest me.  Most of them just try to sound as Southern as they can, and moan while singing, and call it country.  Nah.  I will stick to real stuff.  Sort of like choosing between Real Butter, or the plastic stuff.  :P

I've got 1652 songs on my ipod. Rock for my workout at the gym, classic old time 40's, 50's and 60' black blues, Coltrane and Davis 60' jazz and opera for working in my studio and the rest of the time. I like all kinds as long as it is quality and I like it loud. Bela Fleck, Doc, and Sam Bush are right up there too.

     I really like the Swing era music, and the thirties, and early forties jazz, but I can't stand the modern jazz.  To me it is like dragging a file across your teeth...... :o  Bela is quite the talented man.  I met him at the Tennessee Banjo institute in Lebanon Tenn.  Back in 94 I believe it was.  Met Grand pa Jones, and Snider, and Eric Weisberg, and a young phenomenal musician named Cody Kilby.  He was a whiz on the Banjo, and why not, he was taught by Scruggs, and he was also a whiz on the guitar, and mandolin.  Some great musicians there.    I grew up listening to the real country, and western music.  My uncle used to sing and play the guitar, at family get to- gethers.  To this day, I can still hear him singing "Cool Clear water".  He was good.

Bluegrass kicks #ss,we go to a few shows here and there.The local bluegrass folks play monthly so you get to see the local talent which goes from not to good to great.Ronda Vincent played at a local fair last month, always a good show.like the traditional like Bill Monroe,Stanly Bros,Flatt and Scruggs,chubby Wise,Lewis Family,Doc W. and the newer ones too .Been tearing a hole in the Steeldrivers CD.I listen to WDVX Knoxville on the computer every AM 6-9 good Bluegrass and gospel on Sun.
