Description
In the history of Bluegrass duets there are the Osborne Brothers, the Stanley Brothers, Jim & Jessie and, of course, Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs. Originally with Bill Monroe, these were the original "Bluegrass Boys" who spun off from Monroe, went out on their own, and never looked back. Wonderful song selections, vocals and instrument playing were their forte but many of us today still revere them for the spectacular banjo playing of Earl Scruggs. This 1970 album from Harmony records ( a division of Columbia Records) is entitled "Foggy Mountain Chimes" and was numbered "H411401". This is a long playing 12" record featuring some of their greatest hits. The album cover has been signed in black sharpie by both Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs (underneath their smiling faces on the cover photo). Cover and vinyl are in very good condition. There is no certificate of authenticity for this item but it is their real autographs. Song titles are listed in photo 5. Own a piece of bluegrass history with these legendary musicians who personally signed the album. Earl was kind enough to sign the head of my banjo back at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago many years ago. He asked that people forgive him for not shaking hands as sometimes well meaning fans crushed his fingers!
