The Johnson Mountain Boys have a pure, driving sound filled with a vigor that makes them much more than revivalists. They're truly an authentic band, true to the soul of the roots of bluegrass. Though they disbanded in the late '80s, the band's enthusiasm for the music they love and the urging of fans led to their regrouping in 1994. This album, recorded at the Lucketts, Virginia Community Center, captures their 'farewell' performance prior to their temporary retirement. It was the IBMA record of the year, and a Grammy finalist.
