RIP Earl Scruggs: The bluegrass legend died in a Nashville hospital Wednesday at age 88. Scruggs was a quiet fellow at times, but he didn’t need to say much, considering he basically made banjo a key instrument of bluegrass. Rest in peace, bluegrass man. (Above: Here’s Scruggs performing with fellow banjo man Steve Martin on Letterman. Look at those fingers go.)
