Recorded on 17th Dec 1981 at Maggard Studios in Big Stone Gap, Va. at the sessions for Ralph's Memory Of Your Smile LP.
This all instrumental album seems to be quite scarce. It features a fair amount of quality lead guitar from Junior Blankenship, which adds variety and Charlie Sizemore also gets to play lead guitar on one track, Little Black Train. (Prior to joining the CMB's Charlie played lead guitar for the Goins Brothers, with a live video from 1977 Wise County Shriners Bluegrass festival available from Appalshop Archive.)
Although Ralph usually sticks to backing on Curly's albums he also provides banjo breaks to Lonley Tombs, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and When The Saints Go Marching In. The Stanley Brothers also recorded Lonely Tombs, but this is the only version with a break by Ralph (mis-titled Lovely Tombs on the cover!).
- Curly Ray Cline: fiddle, vocals
- Junior Blankenship: lead guitar
- Jack Cooke: bass
- Charlis Sizemore: guitar
- Ralph Stanley: banjo
