Recorded live at The Newport Folk Festival, Newport, Rhode Island, in 1964 and 1965. Includes liner notes by Fred Sokolow and Ronny Schiff. The title doesn't lie -- this disc has 21 tracks by three of the best acts in the field (Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, and Jim & Jesse McReynolds), recorded live at the 1965 and 1966 Newport Folk Festivals. The sound and performances are good, and each act presents some familiar favorites -- the McReynolds offer "Dueling Banjos" and "Sugarfoot Rag," Monroe does "Shady Grove" and "Cotton-Eyed Joe," and Flatt & Scruggs play "Orange Blossom Special," "Foggy Mountain Chimes," and "The Ballad of Jed Clampett." A youthful Peter Rowan, then a guitarist with Monroe, does a duet vocal with the bandleader on "Walls of Time." ~ Richie Unterberger   Technical Info Release Date : 06/18/1996 Original Release Date : 1996 Catalog ID : 77012 Label : Vanguard Records (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Runtime : 55m : 53s Studio/Live : Live Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00015707701228    Product Image
