Béla Fleck's My Bluegrass Heart
Episode 183: He's the most gifted and innovative banjo player of all time and one of the architects of an American string band jazz tradition that's influenced generations of bluegrass musicians. And now after two decades of varied explorations in classical, world and fusion music, Bela Fleck has circled back to the music that captivated him as a teenager. My Bluegrass Heart is an epic 19-track double album featuring the finest acoustic pickers of our time and the completion of a trilogy of albums that began in 1987. Also in the hour, a report from the 20th anniversary Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion.
