Larry Sparks is a titan in traditional bluegrass and he is celebrating 50 years
as a performer with this fantastic release. He’s never sounded better.

2 – (2:34) Journey To The Light* Fine coal mining song, slow-mid tempo.
3 – (3:43) Bitterweeds* Terrific unrequited love song, fine.
4 – (3:08) Going Up Home To Live In Green Pastures* Lead vocals from Judy
Marshall & Alison Krauss, wonderful.
5 – (2:28) Loving You Too Well* Featuring Ralph Stanley on harmony, wow!
6 – (2:53) Savior’s Precious Blood* Just Larry & guitar, fantastic gospel.
7 – (2:49) Letter From My Darling Bobby Osborne on tenor, decent.
8 – (2:45) We Prayed* Very fine old-timey modal tune.
9 – (3:36) Dim Lights, Thick Smoke* Curley Seckler on vocals, terrific!
10 – (2:19) In Those Days Good ¾ time song of reflection.
11 – (3:28) I’m Gonna Sing, Sing, Sing Good version of Hank Williams song.
12 – (4:12) In The Pines* Recording of live duet w/Bill Monroe, so fine!
