This is an eight song Gospel cassette compilation... It is most notable for the front cover photo, which was taken at the same photo shoot as the Good Old Camp Meeting Songs, Mountain Music Sound Of The Stanley Brothers and Jacob's Vision albums.

All the songs can now be found spread over the Early Starday/King Years, 1958-1961 and The King Years, 1961-1965 4xCD sets.

 

For a detailed breakdown and background to the Stanley's session, check Gary B. Reid's The Music Of The Stanley Brothers book. See the orignal album entries for page ref's.
