Rural Rhythm Records announces two new titles in its archival HERITAGE COLLECTION series.
Since the initial release in late 2013, thirteen titles have been released to date in the Rural Rhythm HERITAGE COLLECTION Series including titles by MAC WISEMAN, HYLO BROWN & The Timberliners, RED SMILEY & The Blue Grass Cut-Ups, J.E. MAINER & The Mountaineers, CURLY FOX, LEE MOORE, RAYMOND FAIRCHILD and JIM GREER & The Mac-O-Chee Valley Folks.
Rural Rhythm is now releasing two more titles in the HERITAGE COLLECTION Series in both the physical CD and digital formats by DALE POTTER with Shot Jackson & Jim Murphy – Hoe Down, Volume 1 originally released in 1967 and BUCK RYAN with Don Reno & Red Smiley – Fiddling Buck Ryan originally released in 1971.
DALE POTTER was once called “the greatest fiddle player who ever lived”. His Nashville studio work tended to prove that: He was one of the most-demanded studio fiddlers during the 1940’s,1950’s and 1960’s. His recording work included dozens of top country artists including Hank Williams, Little Jimmy Dickens, Chet Atkins, Jimmy Dean and Webb Pierce. His special skill in country-jazz fiddle set a standard which was seldom matched by any other fiddler.
Recorded in 1967and produced by Lee Sutton, Hoe Down !, Volume 1 is part of a ten album series that Uncle Jim O’Neal created featuring some of the best fiddle players around in the 60’s such as Vassar Clements, Buck Ryan, Clarence “Tater” Tate, Mutt Poston, DeWayne Wear and of course, Dale Potter. In addition to fiddle master DALE POTTER, Hoe Down, Volume 1 features Shot Jackson on Dobro guitar and Jim Murphy on steel guitar.
BUCK RYAN was playing fiddle with Don Reno, Red Smiley and Bill Harrell and The Tennessee Cut-Ups at the time of this recording, so we are fortunate to hear one of those rare recordings where Reno & Smiley and Harrell are serving as a backup band. Fiddling Buck Ryan was produced by Dick Unteed and recorded at the Rome Recording studios and contains some of the best Bluegrass & Country instrumental music recorded by this fine group of Bluegrass legends and pioneers.
DALE POTTER – Hoe Down, Volume 1 (RUR-179) and BUCK RYAN - Fiddling Buck Ryan (RUR-244) are available to DJ's on AirPlay Direct, as well as, the other thirteen titles currently released in the Rural Rhythm Heritage Collection series.
Both titles are now available on iTunes DALE POTTER – Hoe Down, Volume 1 and BUCK RYAN - Fiddling Buck Ryan and Amazon DALE POTTER - Hoe Down, Volume 1 and BUCK RYAN - Fiddling Buck Ryan and wherever digital and physical CD music is sold.
The Rural Rhythm HERITAGE COLLECTION Series includes authentic Old-Time Country, Bluegrass, Folk, Country Waltzes, Fiddle Tunes and Gospel music performed by many legends & pioneers. Titles are mastered from the original master tapes, with original cover artwork and include many albums never-before available on CD.
