American popular music was born when Celtic fiddlers and Manding griots met...It hit the stage in the 1830s with the minstrels. Expression of Africanity were strictly prohibted so we stuck our feel into European songs. The seperation of black and white music came about largely becuase of record company marketing and post Civil War race relations. I wonder if Eric Clapton has ever heard Frank Hutchinson...????

Good to see them educating people on the history of music in the South. As the 20th century went on in the South, the music diverged into blues, Southern gospel, rockabilly, jazz, etc. But this music came before them all.

This isn't bluegrass, it's old-time: bluegrass started in the late 1940s, and this band plays more 1910-style. Some good "black" old-time bands that recorded before 1960 are Frazier and Patterson, Lusk Gribble and York, Prater and Hayes, Dallas String Band, Mississippi String Band, Mississippi Mud Steppers, Mobile Strugglers, Kansas City Blues Strummers, Nashville Washboard Band, Birmingham Jug Band, Andrew and Jim Baxter, Booker Orchestra, Two Poor Boys, Son Simms Four, Sid Hemphill's band.

This is not bluegrass.
Bluegrass rocks, but old-time rules.
