Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys

William Smith Monroe (; September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) was an American mandolinist, singer, and songwriter, who created the bluegrass music genre. Because of this, he is often called the "Father of Bluegrass".The genre takes its name from his band, the Blue Grass Boys, who named their group for the bluegrass of Monroe's home state of Kentucky. He described the genre as "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'. It's Methodist and Holiness and Baptist. It's blues and jazz, and it has a high lonesome sound." more »

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

As I travel down life's pathway
Knowing not what the years may hold
As I ponder hopes grow fonder
Precious memories flood my soul

Precious Memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

Precious father loving mother 
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes from my childhood
In fond memory appear
