Fans of hillbilly boogie and hot guitar will love this collection of incredible guitar and steel guitar duets from Speedy West and Jimmy Bryant, two of the finest players to ever touch a musical instrument. In addition to fantastic instrumental treats like Stratosphere Boogie and Speedin' West, you'll hear some of the recordings that Speedy and Jimmy did as session men for other singers such as 'Tennessee' Ernie Ford, Jean Shepard, and Spike Jones. As a bonus, both sides of Jimmy Bryant's first recording are included, the impossibly rare Jelly Beans Daddy/Boogie Barn Dance, originally cut for MODERN RECORDS in 1949. If you don't already own the Flamin' Guitars box set BEAR FAMILY, this single-CD compilation is an absolute must! The usual BEAR FAMILY superb packaging, 40 + page liner notes by guitar geek & music impresario DEKE DICKERSON and the usual amazing sound mastering..................
