Muleskinner was an American bluegrass band, consisting of Clarence White (guitar, vocals), Peter Rowan (guitar/vocals), Bill Keith (banjo), Richard Greene (fiddle) and David Grisman (mandolin). Muleskinner was assembled to play on a television special with bluegrass originator Bill Monroe and his band in a old guard/new generation format. Due to a bus breakdown, Monroe was not able to make the taping and Muleskinner wound up playing the whole show. The recording of that performance was, for many years, a lost bluegrass legend before a copy was found and released.
