Fishbone, Jimi Jones on bass,  I thought they couldn’t exist without Norwood, but Jimi does very well.

Vince Gill and John McEuen introduced some ladies at IBMA Awards Show in 1990... 35 years ago this past week. Every single one of them went on to rather noteworthy careers. Arguably, a couple of them already had one by 1990.


 
Lynn Morris- guitar
Missy Raines- bass
Andrea Zonn- fiddle and harmony vocals
Alison Krauss- mandolin (yes, mandolin) and lead vocals
Alison Brown- banjo (and I think she's singing the third part)

*as a side note, the song they're performing here was written by Ron Block, who would join Union Station a couple years later, replacing Alison Brown. His band at the time, Weary Hearts, was playing "You're In My Heart" in regular rotation. The circle is pretty small... Ron's bandmate Chris Jones (and brother-in-law) played in Lynn Morris' band and also in Whetstone Run with her for a while before that. Ron and Chris are both prolific writers.


Both very enjoyable; thanks, Greg.
Just wish the IBMA one was in better focus:  At the risk of sounding like a guy, that's the first time I've seen AK's legs...........

These guys are new to me; thanks! I don't know if I'd go so far as to say I'm into them - but they sure don't suck!  First song?  Don't care what the guy doing the intro says, I'm hearing some Zappa influences there ("Once in a while you get shown the light/In the strangest of places if you look at it right" - if you listen right, too)
3rd song - a freakin' theramin?!

Interesting, to say the least.
