A favorite album of mine for 20 years

"I got this album on vinyl 20 years ago, when I was in 5th or 6th grade, from a friend who told me his dad knew these guys (exactly what the connection was I don't remember). At my house, with the record on the turntable, we listened to "Johnny B Goode," the 1st time I remember hearing the song; only later did I hear the original by Chuck Berry. Everything else on this album is good as well; besides covering other artists' hits, the McReynolds brothers wrote 3 songs of their own for this album: "Colorado Calling Me," "Where Do We Go From Here" & "Truck Stops & Pretty Girls." I'm sorry to learn that Jim died when the year 2002 closed, yet happy that Jesse still performs with other members of his family."
