twang! twang!!

Bluegrass! Ass.
Some of this is very questionably bluegrass. After today we change into a Metallica-only blog. Get ready.

Earl Scruggs & The Foggy Mountain Boys - Foggy Mountain Breakdown

Alison Krauss and Union Station - Dark Skies

Incredible String Band - First Girl I Loved
This song is really nice and sweet and if you like oxygen what is wrong with you you should like it. Too. 1967.

Get this entire anthology by John Fahey. Freaking nuts how great this man is! Guitar extraordinaire.
Part 1
Part 2
Thanks dude one and dude two.


Happy belated birthday to the blog. It is now one-year-old and a few days. It's called "a success," achieved through me and some other people (not Beth because she likes bad music and incidentally a quitter with a failure to commit to excellence) having the first greatest music preferences and also being heinously fantastic writers. With the coagulation of those two qualities, GANGSTER LEGS was born and has both caused and endured suffering in 371 days.

If 2009 is any indication of future trends, 2010 should be terrible in the widest sense of all that is awful or could ever be so. Happy new year.
