JohnnyReb 20 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Thought I would share the news with you guys that Mr Scruggs passed away this morning in Nashville. I never heard it on the news and was just shocked with it a few mins ago. He is one of my musical heroes and hate to see him go. Great man and musician. A real pioneer. Rip Mr Scruggs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuestionMark 74 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Absolutely phenomenal playing... His picking and musicianship whether on guitar or 5 string banjo will remain an inspiration. What a life he had...he made the world a better place for all musicians. QM (aka Jazzman Jeff) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobouz 150 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Really loved so much of Earl's work. From setting the standard with Bill Monroe's band, to the diversity of Earl Scruggs-His Family & Friends, this gentleman's contribution will never be forgotten. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willysunday 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Very sad news. What a GIANT talent while remaining a humble servant of music. Very few have put their stamp on music as did Mr. Scruggs. RIP Earle Scruggs, and thanks. Best to his family & friends. Willy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
