Your gifts of music, inspiration and encouragement have indeed made this a better world.
Happy Birthday!
Your version of 'Nine Pound Hammer', with Doc Watson, has been a constant inspiration for me, for nearly 20 years.
Thank you, and 'Sto Lat' - may you live 100 years.
Happy birthday, indeed.

Happy birthday to the man who created the music that showed me a new world, and inspired me to pick up the instrument way back in 1978.

Happy Birthday to the Dawg for all the wonderful music!
Happy Birthday, Mr. Grisman! Much respect for all the fine music you're brought into the world and all the progress you've made enlightening the general public and devoted players about the wonders of our beloved instrument. You've inspired so many.
I'll never forget the first time I heard the first Grisman album. I was living partly in Berkeley at the time, and went to see the Jerry Garcia Band (only time I did) at a fairly small club. The sound guy was playing music over the PA before the show, which was quite new to me and took some time to figure out, though I recognized the sound of a mandolin. I finally realized it was that first album, which I'd read about somewhere, and it just had to be that - couldn't be anything else. I heard it two times through entirely during the course of the night - before the show and between sets. I remember some of the show, but that album made a bigger impression on me. It was soo innovative, imaginative, and just brilliant. It's one of the albums that truly changed my life. Not that I've ever tried too hard to play like that - not up to speed on those chops - but it opened my mind to possibilities of the mandolin heretofore unimagined and thereafter imagined and inspired.
One other thing - I joke about how mandolinists of a certain age, when they bought a mandolin in the 1970s, the paperwork it came with included in the fine print a proviso stating the new owner had to learn "Friend Of The Devil" and "Maggie May."
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
