Synopsis by Matthew Tobey

One would be hard pressed to find anyone who doesn't think that, for all intents and purposes, Bill Monroe invented bluegrass. At least 15 of the biggest artists in the genre are in agreement on that point, and they all came together to record this tribute concert to the legendary Monroe. Among those performing some of Monroe's best-loved songs in The Legend Lives On: A Tribute to Bill Monroe are Marty Stuart, the Whites, Charlie Daniels, and Ralph Stanley & the Clinch Mountain Boys.
