Memories from the Homestead: Earl Scruggs took Bill Monroe's sound into overdrive
Earl Scruggs took a three-finger style approach to picking using his thumb, index and middle finger, in a forward rolling rapid pattern. This style is what turned the banjo from a rhythm instrument to a lead instrument.

Memories from the Homestead: Table Rock's name comes from a nearby mountain
So where does the "Table Rock" name come from? Well, go upstream a few miles above Branson and there's a turn in the river, a large bluff that features a rock formation that was recognized as being as flat as a table top.
