Compadres: An Anthology of Duets
(2007)

by
Marty Stuart
Marty Stuart released a pair of very fine yet very different recordings in 2005. The first, Souls' Chapel, was an innovative yet rootsy country-gospel set. The second, Badlands: Ballads of the Lakota, was a heart-rending deeply soulful, and sometimes rocking album based on the proud heritage of the Indian-American (the politically correct term in ...

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, ...

This two-CD, 35-song compilation could probably hardly be bettered as a summation of this band's best-recorded work. Disc one focuses on tracks from 1961-1962, including four songs from the 1961 New Folks various-artists compilation, two songs from Joan Baez, Vol. 2 on which they played backup, and eight songs from their proper full-length debut, ...

True Life Blues: The Songs of Bill Monroe
(1996)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The 17 newly-recorded songs on this album comprise a loving tribute to the man generally considered to have invented bluegrass music, and the album was timed well, coming out just shortly before Monroe's death in 1996 at the age of 85. The songs are mostly pretty predictable. The program leads off with the Nashville Bluegrass Band's rendition of ...

The Lilly Brothers & Don Stover
If the Lilly Brothers had stayed in their native West Virginia and pursued a bluegrass career there, they would have gone down in the history books as a classic brother act on a par with Jim & Jesse McReynolds or the Osborne Brothers (though probably not in the same class as the Stanley Brothers). But by relocating to Boston in the early '50s and ...

Andy Statman
Andy Statman is known both for his clarinet and mandolin playing, and he is equally adept at both. Sometimes his two worlds collide, but East Flatbush Blues finds him sticking to his strings, while the simultaneously recorded Awakening from Above is meant to showcase Statman's clarinet work. He's a restless performer with deep roots in Americana ...

Recorded live in 1989, Monroe has by this time turned over a majority of lead vocal turns to guitarist Tom Ewing. But the music proves how vibrant and aggressive Monroe's mandolin skills remain. It also features one fantastic cut from a 1948 Opry date. Michael McCall, All Music Guide

Raymond Fairchild
When banjoist Raymond Fairchild burst upon the folk revival scene in the early '60s, he was hailed as the real deal. His picking borrowed from Earl Scruggs and others, but he had also carved out a distinct style that combined the three-finger method with single note runs. Plays the Classics was compiled from two albums that Fairchild recorded in ...

No moment of the birth of bluegrass goes unremembered in the dusty vocal stylings of the great Kentuckian Bill Monroe. Furthermore, no speedier, crystalline mandolin gets strummed better here, there, or anywhere.
