Lots of variety (and plenty of good fiddling) on this 28 track collection of Bluegrass, Old-Time, and Texas style fiddling. Many of the pieces are from the Galax, Va. area (Otis Burris, Tommy Jarrell, Esker Hutchins), but there are also neat pieces from Texas (Norman Solomon, Orville Burns), Missouri (Cyril Stinnett) and even New England (The Riendeau Family). Kenny Baker and Joe Greene play a neat twin fiddle version of LEATHER BREECHES. Most of the tunes were recorded by Charlie Faurot for release on the County label starting in the 1960s. Nicely presented with good notes, this is a fine compilation.
