See if you can tell them apart! Russell Wilson already had his way of singing tenor when Ralph Stanley came into his life. Of course, Ralph Stanley had developed his style years before. They were friends and Russell Wilson wrote the song "The Stanley's Will Sing Again". Russell Wilson wrote several songs and also wrote the music to "Lonesome Old Home". You'll love this CD the music is great and so are the Cumberland Highlanders' good picking.

This music is purely from the heart and soul of these musicians. The album could not better exemplify what bluegrass music means to it's musicians and it's fans. If you are reading this tidbit in order to entice a purchase then take my advice. Be brave! Add this CD to your top 25 favorite CD selections. Ralph Stanley's guest appearance is another draw. Personally, I can never get enough of Uncle Ralph. I can't get into the technical aspects of the musicianship on the record mainly because it doesn't matter. The record speaks to me. And I let it do all the work. May I sneak in 6 stars here? Thank you, Christian
As one who receives some of the very best Bluegrass on the face of the earth.....now and then something really special comes along that really gets under my skin and beats on the sweet spot of my ear drums.. That something special is the CD by the Cumberland Highlanders " Cumberland Mountain Home ". From the fact filled 20 pg. booklet, to the special guest artist, Ralph Stanley, this album plays like a Kentucky Mountain campfire smells. From the peak of the " Big Black Mountain ", thru the " Lost Sinner's Prayer " & " Harbor Of Love "....this highest lonesome is the real deal. Eddie Russell / Country Eastern / Outlaw For Peace Radio
Among the many Bluegrass "Voices" of today, one often searches in vain for that traditional sound that is the true mountain music that Bluegrass was intended to be. That sound has been mastered by the Cumberland Highlanders in their new CD "Cumberland Mountain Home"... It goes beyond the hearing of the ears and reaches right into your very soul. From "Cumberland Mountain Home" to "The Stanleys Will Sing Again" this is one of the truely great CD's I have ever had the pleasure to listen to. Robert Taylor/Director/Highways and Hedges Ministries

This album is a piece of history for the true Bluegrass lover. Dr. Ralph Stanley's first ever recording of "The Stanleys Will Sing Again"- WOW! However, the historic aspect of the album is not the only reason to get this CD. This album is packed full of great Bluegrass music. This is one that you'll put in your CD player and have a hard time taking it out. It's getting played on my radio show, and it should be played in every home that is occupied by a true Bluegrass lover.
