Big Pimpin’

Well, we try to be as uncommercial around here as possible. I’m sure some of you have noticed that there are no ads anywhere on this site. Of course, when only 4 people read this crap, the bandwidth bills stay pretty low. So, in that spirit, please take the following information as a suggestion and not as some commercial, as we certainly get no kick-backs.

I am a fan of Bluegrass and Old-Timey country music. I like many other kinds of music as well, in fact, Ministry’s “Jesus Built My Hotrod” is playing right now, but bluegrass and string bands are certainly near the top of my list. To that end, I have been trying to find a good place to buy CD’s like The Old Crow Medicine Show and The Corndrinkers. While Amazon has some of these titles available, their supply is inadequate and the selection has a certain lack of depth at some extreme ends of the “downhome” musical spectrum.

Finally, a coworker introduced me to County Sales. This site is an unending treasure trove of good down-home, bluegrass music. If you are interested in the least to rural music from the turn-of-the-century to the present, I suggest you give them a try.
