Country Songs Old & New
Here are the classic Country Gents in their first album-length release, produced by Mike Seeger in Washington D.C. studio toward the end of 1959, as their music was solidifying into the sound that would bring them enduring fame for the next several decades. Seeger had already introduced bluegrass to Folkways records via two albums of informally recorded music which had sold well enough to persuade Moses Asch that more was in order. And made to that order were these young savvy urban musicians who were just beginning to blend several elements of popular music into the traditional bluegrass mix in a sucessful effort to develop their own style.
