(Nashville NLP-2112) 1970
This is a ten-track gospel compilation on the budget Starday-King subsidiary. It might be my hearing, but it sounds like some of the tracks may have been tweaked with a touch of echo/reverb... so they sound like they've been recorded in a big cavern.
Today, probably the best way to get all the King/Starday material is on the excellent The Early Starday/King Years, 1958-1961 and The King Years, 1961-1965 4xCD sets...
For detailed information on the songs/sessions check Gary B. Reid's The Music Of The Stanley Brothers book. For page references, see the Original Release entries.
