Sharing bluegrass records cover art, labels, inserts and liner notes. Click on any image for a large, easy-to-read (sometimes even printable!) version of that image. Enjoy.


NOTE: Blogspot has recently changed the default when you click on blogspot-hosted images so that they open in a viewer that doesn't easily allow for zooming in on oversized images, at least on my machine/browser. This kind of defeats the purpose of these posts. The easy way around that is to right click (control click on a mac) and choose open link in new browser or new tab in the drop down menu that appears.

Old Belle Reed & Family


released on Rounder Records (077) in 1977 

Photography by Carl Fleischhauer. Notes by David Whisnant. Design by Pat Alger.

"At the Brandywine Mountain Music Convention in the Summer of 1976, Ola Belle sat under a tree and talked for an hour with s fourteen-year-old boy raised to the sounds of rock, who was attending his first traditional festival. His jaw dropped when she told him she had been playing forty years, as if that were an incomprehensible span of time." - David Whisnant
