Thankful for Bluegrass 2008

There are many things to be thankful for on this day of national celebration. Here at The Bluegrass Blog we’d like to express our thankfulness for a great year of bluegrass music. 2008 gave us some incredible music.

Below we’ve included a poll allowing you to contribute the bluegrass recording you’re most thankful for this year. Please limit your entries to recordings released during the 2008 calendar year.

We’ll let this run for a week or two then we’ll take the top 25 vote getters and present another poll where we can narrow it down the Bluegrass Blog Top Ten Bluegrass Recordings of 2008.

UPDATE: Please submit recordings, not just artist names. Dailey & Vincent is both the artist name and the recording name. Grascals is just the artist name, Keep on Walking is the recording, and should be the submission.
