I used to listen to this on tape back in the early 90's. It's not the typical bluegrass for sure. The combination of musicians and the romanticized songs made it one of my favorite albums. There is no music like this anymore in the digital age.
The more recent O&ITW albums (on David Grisman’s Acoustic Disc label) are all available on streaming services: Breakdown That High Lonesome Sound Live at the Boarding House (complete shows) (On Spotify) there’s a curious glitch at the beginning of “Breakdown”: the intro by Peter Rowan is repeated twice
OMG I remember 1972-3, in college and going thru a bluegrass phase. Loved every song, and became a huge bluegrass fan. Thank you for posting this album, and bringing back memories. Went to Nashville April 21 and found a bluegrass band that was so good, they played Knocking on your Door My Darling...perfectly and they had never heard of this album...Thank you soooo much.
Dude thank you for posting this. I was looking for this recently and couldn’t find my copy and realized it isn’t on Apple Music either. Tragedy. Best copy on RUclips. 🙏
This is so fantastic to listen to. I grew up in the 70s and my father played in a very traditional Bluegrass band. He had a washtub bass to give you an idea of what I am talking about . They had good intentions, but this album was considered a heresy bluegrass music, regardless, through the years, playing music with my friends and coming along to the sounds of fans like the new grass revival, the new south , Dole Lawson and Toni Rice …. We all naturally embraced this album and all genres of music. Listening to this really took me down memory lane I’m going to festivals in the 70s and growing up in the music up to the 90s a big thumbs up!
There were a few traditional bluegrass artists that took these poor rocker-pickers under their wings. Will the Circle Be Unbroken and Old and in the Way are a testament to their spirit. The list of those invited to the Grand Ol' Opry is surprising.
That's so true. I was living in Manhattan in the 1970s and called the old DJ of a very popular country show. He was aghast at my request that he play a cut from the album. I was very young and he knew it and relented, but reluctantly.
There's some American music. Make America Grateful Again.
Probably listened to this album 1000 times.. Never gets old..
It’s amazing. It stays fresh.
I wish nothing but the Best for all those who loved/love me...❤

I heard this years ago. It still fucking rocks! CRAZY GOOD!
Thanks
Timeless gem that only gets better. They're really following in Bill Monroe's footsteps here. God Bless Peter Rowan for getting them all together.
