Ralph Stanley - Live From Bean Blossom 1972 Vol. 2

(No Label No #) 2015

---

This is one of three CD's from the 1972 Bean Blossom festival which are available from the Bean Blossom Store.

Tracks 1-8 are from Ralph's Saturday late afternoon/early evening performance and Tracks 9-16 are from the late Saturday evening performance 17th Jun 1972.

Tracks 17-22 are from a joint session with Jimmy Martin and the Sunny Mountain Boys... I'm not sure where this is from... I've heard it but just can't place it!

Approx 10xCDs worth of MP3s have circulated from this festival^[1] including additional CMB material not on the CD and the quality isn't noticeably any better than the MP3's.. but it's still a nice to have item.

With a running time of over 74 mins, the disc may not play in all players - it works fine in my PC, but doesn't play on my relatively new hi-fi.

PS: There's a couple of print errors on the CD Tray - What A Singing There Will Be should be When I Get Home and there's a version of Katy Daley at the end of Track 20 which isn't listed.

• Ralph Stanley: banjo, vocals
• Roy Lee Centers: guitar, vocals
• Curly Ray Cline: fiddle
• Jack Cooke: bass
• Ricky Skaggs: mandolin, fiddle
• Keith Whitley: lead guitar
