Tribute to The Stanley Brothers

Jalyn Records is back! The Dayton, Ohio label from the creative mind of bluegrass legend Jack Lynch originally ran from the early '60s through the late '70s. Working out of his apartment on Brown Street, Lynch turned out a steady run of hard-driving bluegrass, country, and gospel sides cut by local pickers and big names alike, including Ralph Stanley and Don Reno. Decades on, these records are now lovingly remastered for modern ears and available on CD for the first time. On January 8, 1971, teenagers Keith Whitley (15) and Ricky Skaggs (16) entered Jalyn Recording Studio in Dayton, Ohio, to cut Tribute to the Stanley Brothers (Jalyn JLP-129). Discovered by Ralph Stanley, who first mistook their voices for his and Carter's, they recorded twelve Stanley Brothers songs in one session with the Clinch Mountain Boys, producing an authentic homage that revealed two remarkable young talents.
