  • Description

    Ever since Bill Monroe introduced Bluegrass music to the world in 1939, gospel and sacred music have been a big part of that tradition. Today, with the music well into its 8th decade, it is still common for performing bands to include at least one religious song as part of its live performances. And there have been countless recordings as well.

    Down through the years many - if not most - of today's Bluegrass artists refer back fondly to memories of a simple church house where they first learned to sing with their families. This new album has been designed to bring back some of those memories, by presenting some of the finest and most enduring gospel songs, as well as spotlighting many of the notable groups and artists who have recorded for the Rebel Records label over the years.

    There is a great deal of variety on this collection, from very old to very new songs, but they can all be considered classics of the genre.

    Few listeners will fail to relate to the songs and messages in this collection - these are inspiring songs performed by some of the finest artists in music, and Rebel Records is proud to have preserved them and present them here!
