Yeah well ... those are certainly fine examples of the crazy technical chops that both Glen and Roy had.  But I'd rather hear them burning down some Bluegrass than playing these classical "show pieces".  They were both amazing players.

I have always thought that Roy would have gotten more of the recognition he so richly deserves if he hadn't relied so much on clowning early in his career (which I myself loved), and Glen's instrumental prowess got overshadowed by his vocal-star stuff (Hartford had a line in an early song about "practicing your ad libs") & bad acting (yes, I saw both True Grit and, even worse, Norwood).

Just heard these guys on the radio.  Kinda getting a Simon & Garfunkel vibe with a bluegrass tinge.
