With all due respect, and not to diminish the memories
and works of Josh and Gene, but Josh's nephew Tim
Graves plays with much the same bluegrass style and
flair they did. I like his work!
By the way, many folks know that Gene's name was
Kenneth Eugene Wooten. Does anyone know if he was
named after his Dad or an uncle, and called "Gene" to
avoid confusion with his namesake?
