  • Description

    In his short life Charlie Poole altered the shape of white American Folk music by pioneering the band set-up, approach and many songs that would be the backbone of Bluegrass. Just by his way of living he created the Country outlaw archetype and his recorded output that consisted of drastic re-workings of a multitude of songs from different traditions and eras resulted in some of the greatest music of the 20th century which has been passed down from generation to generation and continues to do so still and hopefully will as long as people listen to music.
