Please rate this album:

This is another ten-track compilation from Gusto, largely drawn from the Remarkable Stanley Brothers Play And Sing Bluegrass Songs For You LP, although it feature the first album appearance of Mama Don't Allow, which had only previously been issued on the I Just Came From Your Wedding / Mama Don't Allow (King 5688) single in Aug. 1962.

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.
