Alan Jackson did more than sit around and gripe about the sad state of commercial country music. He went out and made a damn fine bluegrass album and reminded us all how great that music was and can be.
David Letterman and his crew continued their fine tradition of supporting fine country, roots and Americana music as they welcomed jackson and his cracker-jack band (in bluegrass is there any other kind?)
Jackson and Co. performed “Blacktop” from the newly released, and straightforwardly titled, “The Bluegrass Album†(Alan’s Country Records/EMI Nashville)
