Mongolian Bluegrass with Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn?

Today's Song: Sometimes by Abigail Washburn

Actually it hardly matters which song I pick by Abigail Washburn, her whole debut cd is great. This is not news to some of my friends at least, kehf and her household are all big fans as well. I picked this particular song simply because there's a video of it up at Youtube, although the quality isn't great:

Abigail Washburn - Sometimes

The point is I hadn't listed Washburn as my song of the day before, and her cd is available on iTunes. ^_^

While searching Youtube I came across this gem: The Sparrow Quartet in Beijing, with a Mongolian folk band called Hanggai. The Sparrow Quartet includes Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn and toured China the last two years. This stuff is good, I wish there was a cd of them with Hanggai! (I haven't done enough research to say definitively that there isn't, so we'll see.)

Live in Beijing - Sparrow Quartet (includes Washhburn & Bela Fleck) w/Hanggai (Mongolian folk band) (very cool stuff! Check out www.ygtwo.com for more info.)

Sparrow Quartet in Shanghai - Sometimes (this is a better sound recording of this song acutally -- although it's cut short.)
