Vern & Ray / Pedersen,Herb San Francisco 1968 CD

At long last, a release from the greatest bluegrass act ever to come out of Northern California! Mandolinist Vern Williams was one of the great tenor singers, while Ray Park doubled on guitar and fiddle and added heartfelt vocals of his own. And on this recording, we catch them with a young Herb Pedersen on banjo and baritone it's one of the hardest, purest-sounding bluegrass trios ever! Produced by Pedersen himself, this one belongs in any bluegrass library, with such tracks as 20 Second Rag; Muleskinner Blues; Georgia Rose; the Buckin' Mule; Orange Blossom Special, and more.
