I gave this CD as a gift to my parents and they were delighted with it since they enjoy listening to the older country music.
April 14, 2008I was born in 1931 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvina. That was way before TV. I remember all these artists and the songs. When they were appearing in Pittsburgh or Wheeling West Virginia (The WWVA Jamboree) I would be right there in the front row. I loved the music when it was Hillbilly, then country western and than The Nashville Sound.
I am so thrilled you recorded all the greats on one CD. I love it and am so happy to be able to purchase it. PS -- I had all the 78rpm records, but over time they got lost. Thank you for putting them all on one CD.

April 7, 2005 |  | A perfect Appalachian honeymoon soundtrack |  |
We bought this - on cassette - in Washington DC on our first day of honeymoon in September 1997. Having flown from Northern Ireland, it provided us with the perfect honeymoon soundtrack as we drove from Washington to Nashville, along the Skyline drive, down through South West Virginia, across Eastern Kentucky to Berea, and down to Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee. We are from an Ulster-Scots/Scotch-Irish background, and during those three weeks we fell in love with the land that our forebears had settled in so many centuries before, bringing thier fiddles and folk songs with them, creating what was the core of mountain old-time music and bluegrass. From the Carter Family right through, every song is a classic. You must buy this!
