Flatt & Scruggs - Foggy Mountain Banjo

Geography lecturer and Tennessean musician Jake Watkins brings some Appalachian pride to the podcast with an album from Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. We detail the origins of bluegrass music, how this duo helped popularize the genre, and the "Scruggs style" of banjo playing.
