This reissue expands the offering with some of their earliest known recordings, combining to form a full menu from a legendary band that ushered bluegrass into a more modern era!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band, led by the virtuosic mandolin player Roland White, delivers a collection of traditional and original tunes that showcase their impeccable musicianship and tight harmonies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut it's not just about technical skill - the Kentucky Colonels also bring a sense of soulfulness to their music. Vocal tracks like \"I Am A Pilgrim\" and \"Lonely Heart Blues\" are delivered with heartfelt emotion, while instrumentals like \"Dusty Miller\" have a haunting beauty that lingers long after they've ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOverall, the Kentucky Colonels' 1966 album is a must-listen for anyone who loves bluegrass music.
