    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Sad news. I was listening to some of the Clinch Mountain Boys old songs last week. Dr Ralph Stanley was one of the greats.

    A legend, sad he has passed. So many iconic songs. RIP.

    Sad to hear, missed it while traveling.

    My great aunt dated Carter before they were big and sadly her youngest sister is the only one left now, my aunt "toots". Her husband Arnold played at the radio station in Norton about the same time. Uncle Arnold used to play little Brown jug for me when I was little. Sorry to ramble, brings back memories.

    Miss home, being in Missouri now.

    R.I.P. Ralph Stanley

    I know what I will be playing in the truck this week. Great artist...
