This upload gave me a chance to sample music I don't normally listen to, as bluegrass is unknown in Peru, where I live. And I really enjoyed these ten tracks, both for the musical skills of the individuals and their tightness as a group. These fellows could really play! I don't like the vocals as much, and find them rather nasal and a little boring. What is also notable is that Chris Hillman was able to make the transition from a fine mandoline player to a talented bass player in the Byrds. Thanks for providing this rare recording, at least to me.
