Editorial Reviews

From the Artist

From the living rooms and front porches of rural America, across the airwaves and onto festival stages, Bluegrass music has been a deeply rooted part of American life for three-quarters of a century. Before compact discs, CMT and music videos, Bluegrass musicians were the biggest stars in music. From the Grand Ole Opry stage, legendary players including Bill Monroe, Lester Flatt, Grandpa Jones and the Osborne Brothers broadcast dazzling breakdowns, tender ballads and hard-drivin’ blues on WSM into the homes and hearts of Americans across the country.

Product Description

These 36 songs drawn from CMH Records’ prestigious catalog of classic bluegrass epitomize the best the genre has to offer. From Jim & Jesse’s tight brother harmonies on "Are You Missing Me?" through Don Reno’s blazing banjo licks on "Feudin’ Banjos" (the original "Dueling Banjos") and Bill Monroe’s soulful vocalizing on the heartbreaking "With Body and Soul," this collection of bluegrass’s biggest songs will delight and inspire new and old fans of America’s homegrown folk art.
