  • All Music Guide

    A four-disc set covering his entire career from 1936 to 1994, this is a meticulously re-mastered and researched four hours and 20 minutes of music and features important recordings from seven decades of recordings for RCA, Columbia, Decca and MCA. It's an exceptional box set, put together with great care and knowledge, and it's essential for any fan of bluegrass or traditional country music.
