This authoritative biography sets out to examine his life in careful detail--to move beyond hearsay and sensationalism to explain how and why he accomplished so much. Former Blue Grass Boy and longtime music journalist Tom Ewing draws on hundreds of interviews, his personal relationship with Monroe, and an immense personal archive of materials to separate the truth from longstanding myth. Ewing tells the story of the Monroe family's musical household and Bill's early career in the Monroe Brothers duo. He brings to life Monroe's 1940s heyday with the Classic Bluegrass Band, the renewed fervor for his music sparked by the folk revival of the 1960s, and his declining fortunes in the years that followed. Throughout, Ewing deftly captures Monroe's relationships and the personalities of an ever-shifting roster of band members while shedding light on his business dealings and his pioneering work with Bean Blossom and other music festivals. Filled with a wealth of previously unknown details, Bill Monroe offers even the most devoted fan a deeper understanding of Monroe's towering achievements and timeless music."--Inside dust jacket. 000845244 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000845244 60010 $$aMonroe, Bill,$$d1911-1996. 000845244 650_0 $$aBluegrass musicians$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000845244 650_0 $$aBluegrass music$$xHistory. 000845244 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 000845244 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aEwing, Tom, 1946-$$tBill Monroe.$$dUrbana : University of Illinois Press, [2018]$$z0252041895$$z9780252041891$$w(DLC) 2018947543$$w(OCoLC)1031341945 000845244 830_0 $$aMusic in American life. 000845244 852__ $$bcoll 000845244 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000845244 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1841319$$zOnline Access 000845244 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:845244$$pGLOBAL_SET 000845244 980__ $$aEBOOK 000845244 980__ $$aBIB 000845244 982__ $$aEbook 000845244 983__ $$aOnline 000845244 994__ $$a92$$bISE
