Barter Theatre Presents: Man Of Constant Sorrow

I thought it would be worth also listing the various 'tribute' recordings and odds 'n' sods I've come across...

Some are already mentioned in the Main Discography, but quite a few aren't as they don't have any of the CMB's playing on them.

One 'Tribute' that isn't listed below is Gary Reid's one man A Man Of Constant Sorrow show. I hope that eventually makes it's way onto DVD.

I also haven't listed individual tracks on albums. eg.

  • We'll Hear Carter Stanley Sing Again on The Sunnysiders - The Sunnysiders (Ozark Mountain LP 2001) 1969. Featuring Roy McGinnis (who's wife Fay ran the Stanley Brothers fan club), and Earl Sykes who later had several songs recorded by Ralph.
  • Ralph Stanley on David Marshall - Song Of Poverty;
  • Roy Lee on James King - '30 Years Of Farming' CD;
  • Let's Talk For A While: The Last Day In The Life Of Carter Stanley on John Wright's - Everything She Asks For;
  • The Stanley Brothers (Dixie Hall/Tom T. Hall) on Travers Chandler & Avery County - 'Pardon Me' CD.

If you know of any other 'tributes' or miscellaneous Stanley Related releases, please get in touch via the Contact page - Thanks!
