Not a lot of you have cast your vote on where I should file my Merle Haggard CD, “The Bluegrass Sessions,” as I try tidying up my computer/music room that my wife refers to as something far south of a rat’s nest.

In case you’re wondering, 14 BluegrassJournal.com readers think it belongs in my collection of country music, while eight others are telling me to file it with my bluegrass CDs.

One reader (you can view his comments by going back to the Haggard story that appeared here a couple of days ago) said my simple little poll amounted to “a loaded question as it calls for the definition of ‘bluegrass.’ The staunch bluegrass conservatives will say ‘no,’ but they’re still waivering on whether the Osborn Bros. are bluegrass or not (all that drums/pedal steel nonsense).”

Right now, I’m promising the writer of that comment to give him a personal response, but in the meantime, take a look at the Haggard story, the comment that was submitted and join the dialogue. Just what is — and isn’t — bluegrass?

And please, vote. My wife’s waiting for me to clean up my room, stacks of CDs included.
