Synopsis

Product Description
RURAL RHYTHM RECORDS
The Leader in Bluegrass Collections
Some say that the overwhelming success of the O Brother, Where Art Thou? Soundtrack album led to the most recent resurgence of Bluegrass music, but that s simply not so. Bluegrass had been growing in popularity for several years as America went in search of its roots. Generations unborn at the time bluegrass originated in the 1940s have discovered that no music is more satisfying to hear or to play. It is, in many respects, all American music rolled into one.
In 1955 Uncle Jim O Neal started Rural Rhythm with a few dollars and lot of dreams. He knew he couldnt produce all the bluegrass and old-time country records, so as he used to say, he just made the best of it . On this 25 song Essential Bluegrass collection, we hear the traditional side of bluegrass played by some of its finest legends in bluegrass such as Mac Wiseman, Reno And Smiley, Don Reno, Red Smiley, Hylo Brown, Bill Harrell, Earl Taylor, Tater Tate, Jim Greer, and more culled from the treasure trove of over 4,000 recorded masters produced over the past 60 years by Rural Rhythm Records.
Essential Bluegrass is Specially Priced and contains original recordings of 25 Classics through the years performed by many Bluegrass Legends. Its some of the best bluegrass classics available and a good place to start for a new Bluegrass fan and has all the important songs for the most seasoned Bluegrass Lover, too.
