This show from the Baird Auditorium at the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC was broadcast live on the National Public Radio Network, and contains one of the best bluegrass live performances that you're likely to hear. Material from it has subsequently resurfaced on various CDs with Gusto reissue probably being the best: Live At The Smithsonian Institution (Gusto GT-5163-2) 2006. Sadly the CD song order has never corrected…
