Rest in Peace James.
James did not have the easiest job being in the business of and the son of the biggest living legend in bluegrass music. He made many contributions to the music we love.
Gary, Thanks for posting. I had not heard this.

Quiet out here isn't it Chuck. As they say: "if you don't know where you come from, it is hard to know where you are goin' ".

I believe services Weds in Nashville. Thought he might go to Rosine where his father is and where he was born.
