Country music superstar Alan Jackson releases his first bluegrass album - appropriately titled The Bluegrass Album. Jackson wrote eight songs for the album, which also includes a couple of well-known standards of the genre, including Bill Monroe's 'Blue Moon of Kentucky.'
The Bluegrass Album is a labor of love for Alan. 'I just wanted to make it for me, to show my appreciation for bluegrass. It's one of the last real American music [genres], where it's real songwriting, singers, and harmonies, and real players.'
