Review

CMH raids the vaults for this bluegrass hits compilation. Notables like the Osborne Brothers, Don Reno (both solo and with his latter-day collaborator Bill Harrell), Lester Flatt, and Mac Wiseman all contribute to this enjoyable, if somewhat shallow, set, which is separated into tributes honoring Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, the Stanley Brothers, and others, although Flatt himself does not perform any of the Flatt & Scruggs material. Crowd pleasers like "Rocky Top," "Foggy Mountain Breakdown," and "Why Did You Wander?" make 24 Greatest Bluegrass Hits a decent introduction for newcomers, and a satisfactory overview for the casual fan. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi
