Anthology

Anthology (2003) more music like this

by Bill Monroe

So much has been said about the founding father of bluegrass music that it would be nice if there was an all-encompassing collection of Bill Monroe's music to accompany the legend. Although the almost -correctly titled Anthology comes close, there is still a wealth of Columbia and RCA-Victor recordings missing from this Decca-centric collection, ...

A Proper Introduction to the Carter Family: Keep on the Sunny Side

A Proper Introduction to the Carter Family: Keep on the Sunny Side (2004) more music like this

by The Carter Family

Certainly there are dozens if not a hundred compilations of the music of the Carter Family. While Rounder issued the complete Victor recordings, and there have been some Columbia sets issued as well, this fairly priced single-disc, 25-cut collection from Proper is all most people need. These tunes were all taken from the 1920s and '30s, and are ...

Little Mo' McCoury (2007) more music like this

by Ronnie McCoury

Virtuosic mandolin player Ronnie McCoury's Little Mo' McCoury may indeed be the "first-ever all-bluegrass CD for kids," but it's no walk down Sesame Street. McCoury, his father Del, his brother Rob, Jason Carter, and Alan Bartram have constructed what should have been the soundtrack for the hallucinatory live-action Country Bears film that ...

Bluegrass: It's About Time, It's About Me

Bluegrass: It's About Time, It's About Me (2005) more music like this

by Roy Clark

This isn't exactly a bluegrass album, although it comes close, gathering tracks Roy Clark recorded in the 1970s for the Dot and ABC labels that are generally bluegrass in nature. Most of the tracks are from 1973's Roy Clark's Family Album and 1974's Family and Friends, with additional tracks drawn from Clark's two albums with banjo player Buck ...

Rock Island Line: The Singles Anthology 1955-1967 (1985) more music like this

by Lonnie Donegan

For most listeners, the three-disc, 86-track Sanctuary/Castle collection Rock Island Line: The Singles Anthology 1955-1967 will be nearly as overwhelming as the eight-disc, all-encompassing Bear Family box More Than "Pye in the Sky," since a little Lonnie Donegan can go a long way for the average listener.

Classic Bluegrass Live: 1959-1966 (2002) more music like this

Greatest Hits 1927-34 (2003) more music like this

by The Carter Family

It is interesting that this selection of the Carter Family's early Victor recordings has been titled Greatest Hits, since the trio (A.P., Sara, and Maybelle Carter) didn't really hit their peak popularity until after they left Victor for Decca in 1935 (at which time they promptly re-recorded everything here) and began their radio contract with ...

Bluegrass 1959-1969 (1991) more music like this

by Bill Monroe

For starters, the only reason this four-CD box didn't garner a perfect score was that the band Monroe led in the early '50s is a tough one to beat -- especially since it contained Jimmy Martin. Musically, the songs Bill Monroe recorded during this very difficult period for bluegrass music -- rock & roll was killing off country, as well as a host ...

Released on CMH Records (the company that puts out the Pickin' On series), Oh Brother, Can You Spare a Dime collects Depression-era songs done by recent and contemporary bluegrass artists, although the most effective tracks here aren't really bluegrass at all, like Peter Rowan's folky take on "No Depression in Heaven" or Tim O'Brien's version of ...
