Peter Rowan “Righteous Pathway” (Tex Logan dedication) & “Goodbye Old Pal” Merlefest 2015
The Peter Rowan Bluegrass Band held down the Traditional Tent at Merlefest this year with standards that form the core of bluegrass—“Blue Moon of Kentucky,” “Uncle Pen,” “Walls of Time” and so on. The standout moment came when he dedicated “Righteous Pathway” to legendary 88-year-old Southwestern fiddler Tex Logan. Joining guitarist Peter Rowan were Keith Little (banjo), Paul Knight (bass), Chris Henry (mandolin), and Blaine Sprouse (fiddle) delivered a stirring version of the Stanley Brothers classic.
