Along with Ralph's "Classic Bluegrass" album (REB-1109) this record contains some of the finest & most popular recordings from Stanley's early years with the Rebel label, a time that saw bands that included Keith Whitley, Ricky Skaggs, and Roy Lee Centers. The 20 songs on this great collection were selected to display the more old-time side of Ralph's music--included are such gems as LITTLE BIRDIE, PRETTY POLLY, GOLD WATCH & CHAIN, GOING TO GEORGIA, HEMLOCKS & PRIMROSES and MAPLE ON THE HILL. It's some of the best music ever cut by this legend.
