Kenny Baker

The preeminent bluegrass fiddler -- via the Bluegrass Blog. Interestingly, he began in swing, with influences such as Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli and Marion Sumnner. He played with Bill Monroe, father of the genre, longer than another other musician did.His smooth, legato feeling-full style is absolutely the gold standard.
