Volume 82 is another genre specific compilation. This time the focus are musicians from South of the Mason-Dixon line. I usually refer to it as Hillbilly music despite the pejorative quality of that label. The sophistication and musicianship belies any effort to suggest that these 'folk' tunes are somehow less accomplished than Mozart.

Josh Graves was the bluesy Dobro genius who figured out how to play with Earl Scruggs. Graves was one of the true giants and this unusual duet with country singer and fiddler Bobby Smith is a fantastic piece of Americana. I guarantee you they don't sound like this anywhere else on the planet.

Curly Seckler began played country and bluegrass music in the 1930's but didn't really hit his stride until he paired with Lester Flatt in the 1950's. Their duets are still considered among the finest ever recorded. This track is a rollicking good time from late in Curly's career when he continued to tour with Lester's band after he passed away.
