This is a fairly rare Japanese compilation of 'King' era material, issued shortly after Carter died. It came with an LP sized insert/ lyric sheet.
It stuck me a little odd that Still Trying To Get To Little Rock was included, with it's Hello Stranger - where's your brother at now? / Ah, he's dead now... lyric...
Nowadays, all the King/Starday material are covered 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.
