The first "Will the Circle be Unbroken" introduced me to bluegrass, and for that it will always be a special record to me.

Pick-up any Flatt and Scruggs, the two or three albums The Dillards had out and early Jim and Jesse and The Virginia Boys, if you're looking for traditional. Pick-up some of Tony Rices' recordings or Dan McCrary or Bill Keith, possibly even Bobby Thompson; if you can find any, if you're looking for a newer approach. There are scads of others, like anything, you'll just have to hunt. You may want to check with a business called County Sales in Floyd,VA. They have alot of hard to find bluegrass. By the way, if you're looking for a recent recording, try Dan Tyminskis' CARRY ME ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN, you won't be disappointed.

Just to put in my two cents worth..
Rhonda Vincent, Del McCurry Band, Mike Snyder, III Time Out, Doyle Lawson, The Osborne Bro's, and definately Mountain Heart.
