Side By Side

The ancient and the modern converge to create the timeless in SIDE BY SIDE, the 2014 release from vocal titan Ralph Stanley and his gifted son and musical heir apparent, Ralph Stanley II. Co-produced by the younger Stanley and John Rigsby, a former member of the elder Stanley's fabled Clinch Mountain Boys band, SIDE BY SIDE is a compelling collection of 14 new and traditional songs. Among the highlights are classics from the pens of A. P. Carter, Charlie Monroe, Albert Brumley and Ernest Tubb and two Ralph Stanley originals as well as samples of Stanley's a cappella and clawhammer banjo stylings.
