I am currently reading a memoir written by Gene Lowinger, a former Blue Grass Boy for Bill Monroe. Gene was jewish, and one time Monroe visited a synagogue service with Gene. Bill was entranced with the music that he heard especially the minor chords. He listened with eyes closed, absorbing everything he heard. After the services, Bill promised the rabbi that he was going to find a way to use some of those notes in his music. The result was the very haunting “Lonesome Moonlight Waltz”. Gene’s book is titled , “ I Hear a Voice Calling”. A very good read.

May I suggest listening to some of 'Black Ox Orkestar'(yes, that's spelled right!)? They're a group which make music that Bill Monroe would have almost assuredly found inspiration in too, or a resonance with. They play Jewish music, minor keys, ancient instruments, and big open spaces in them. They're incredibly unique.

@@TheRamsberg Thank you. I have just listened to Black Ox Orkestar and can see where Mr. Monroe could perhaps have found their haunting, brooding, almost mystical melodies adaptable to his high lonesome style.

@@stevecline5102 You're welcome. Yeah, to me it's like people entering the same musicality hall, but from different places, is all. That's how I've grown to see a seemingly eternal and universal musical connectivity in folk music. For further example, Huun-Huur-Tu's song Chirakhoor. I believe the translation for that song's title is 'Yellow Mustang'.

I found very good TAB and standard notation for this in Mandolin Magazine. I've played it a thousand times and still love it. People always like too. Put this one in your pocket.

Thanks for posting this original studio version. I learned this from sheet music and was hoping to check what I learned against the original. And of course this original kills.
