Synopsis

Product Description
Those who have ever heard any of the work of this marvelous family group will be excited to see the very best of their early recordings available in two stunning compact discs including some songs that have never before been released in any form!

The four members of the family Homer, Jay, Lori and Lisa developed their singing style at very early ages, influenced by the work of the Marshall Family, The Country Gentlemen and Doyle Lawson, among others. What was unusual was the fact that they were born and raised in central Pennsylvania, not in the usual traditional bluegrass hot bed of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast.

Their selection of material is unmatched, and their arrangements of songs are always appropriate and tasteful, with a good part of their repertoire featuring difficult a cappella songs that they sing to perfection.

Some of the songs on the first volume of this 18-track collection include the traditional Prettiest Flowers Will Be Blooming, the Stanley Brothers' A Vision of Mother and a beautiful rendition of Dolly Parton's Sacred Memories.
