Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority. - William Jennings Bryan

The World Has Lost a Fireball

JIMMY MARTIN
1927-2005
Jimmy Martin was the King of Bluegrass music. He died today (May 14th) at age 77 from bladder cancer. I had the great honor of meeting him seeing him perform in 2004 here in Bristol. There are few singers I love, and I loved this man. He was a great person and I talked to him several times through e-mail also, but not since he had been ill. May God be with his family. At least now he's home in Heaven. The Circle is Unbroken.
