This album compiles the very beginning of one of the longest lasting groups of the history of American Music. Active from 1927 to 1956, the legendary Carter Family were originally a trio and dug deeply in the musical tradition of their southwestern Virginia, bringing to light a number of gospel and folk songs that made them superstars in their day and later went on to inspire many revival groups of the Sixties and Seventies.
