If, as it's said, music is the universal language, we have two examples of that today. A group of young Chinese musicians (apparently from Hong Kong) provide a beautiful, though deadpan, take on the Hank Williams classic "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)," substituting the 2-string Chinese erhu for a fiddle. Great solos and vocal.
Meanwhile, a more animated group of young Japanese musicians calling themselves Redbull perform a rollicking version of the bluegrass classic, "Fox On the Run," at the Rocky Top club in Ginza, Tokyo. A fine time was had by all, including us. Hope you enjoy (h/t Brother Hackwhacker).
