CD Reviews

Great performances, but all previously released

Kenneth French | Montclair, NJ | 01/27/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Earl Scruggs has to be about the greatest banjo player who ever lived (and still going strong in his 80s!). These are performances with Hylo Brown & the Timberliners from 1959 and as part of Flatt & Scruggs in 1966. All except "Girl in the Red Velvet Band" were previously released on other Vanguard collections like "Bluegrass at Newport" and "Newport Folk Festival: Best of Bluegrass." So if you have those (like I do), you might hesitate before getting this one, unless you want all of Scruggs' picking on one disc."
