Full article:

Chris Hillman (The Byrds] : Within a two mile radius in Hollywood was The Ash Grove, and up the street was The Troubadour, and it was worlds apart in the folk music period, prior to The Beatles. So at The Troubadour, you would hear the Modern Folk Quartet or a Kingston Trio-type band, down at The Ash Grove you'd hear - and I did see - The Stanley Brothers, Bill Monroe, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, Mance Lipscomb and Lightning Hopkins.
