THE LEADER IN CLASSIC BLUEGRASS COLLECTIONS - Continuing with Rural Rhythm s highly successful POWER PICKS Series comes 25 HYMNS FROM THE OLD COUNTRY CHURCH Traditional Bluegrass & Country. This new GOSPEL Bluegrass & Country collection is a BEST OF title spanning over 50 years and contains our most powerful recorded hymns performed by many legends, pioneers and hit makers from yesterday and Today !

The first generation of Old-Time Country and Bluegrass stars drew heavily on hymns, many of which dated back to the gospel revivals of the late 1800 s or early 1900 s. Some reached back even further into classic English and American hymnody. These hymns simply cannot be surpassed. They ve survived the test of the ages, and their message still resonates with us as strongly as it did with our ancestors. Every generation has a role to play in handing down these songs, and this collection is part of that ongoing process. Just as we look at old church pews and wonder about those who once sat there, so we listen to these songs and reconnect with our own forebears who sang them too.

25 HYMNS FROM THE OLD COUNTRY CHURCH is the fifth title in the POWER PICKS Series which focuses on classic Traditional Bluegrass & Old-Time Country recordings that represents the BEST OF standard & gospel classics from Rural Rhythm s Treasure trove of over 4,000 original masters dating back to 1955 when the label was created.
