Jim Kent's rare 14:34 min film shot at Ralph Stanley's 11th Memorial Bluegrass Festival in May 1981. Transferred from 16mm cine film (thanks Dennis!). For more info see www.clinchmountainecho.co.uk
One of the first Bluegrass festivaux was the Warrenton Bluegrass Festival just outside of my home town of Warrenton VA. Another event there was the yearly Country Music Contest.
It's a downright shame that they don't make Bluegrass festivals like this anymore.. Most of what I've seen is subpar and include this crap bluegrass-"pop" singing!...
