FROM THE SHOW: RICKY SKAGGS & LOUISIANA RED
Mandolinist and singer Ricky Skaggs grew up in Kentucky, playing with Ralph Stanley and the Country Gentlemen, then recorded a string of country hits in the 1980s. He never strayed far from his bluegrass roots, though. Skaggs talks about bluegrass great Bill Monroe, playing "Big Mon," his tribute to Monroe, and "What Would You Give In Exchange For Your Soul?," Monroe's first recording. Skaggs discusses balancing Nashville country with bluegrass, and demonstrates how Monroe's manolin style evolved as he integrated new influences and himself became an influence on rock and roll.

Iverson Minter is the name on his Mississippi birth certificate; "Red" came with a notorious love of New Orleans hot sauce; and his sound was formed while working in the Pittsburgh steel mills. Just as Ricky Skaggs sees his music as an expression of spirituality, Louisiana Red infuses his blues with messages of labor protest and Civil Rights.
