Following his legendary, decades-long partnership with Earl Scruggs, Lester Flatt formed the Nashville Grass and kept the traditional bluegrass flame burning bright. Country Boy, released on RCA Victor, is a joyful, straightforward acoustic record that highlights Flatt's relaxed, iconic vocal delivery and his incredibly steady rhythm guitar playing. The album is notable for featuring a young Marty Stuart on mandolin and the fiery instrumental 'Feudin' Banjos.' It's an unpretentious, expertly played slice of traditional country and bluegrass that sounds wonderfully warm on vinyl.
