It was with great sadness that we learned news of Delia Bell's recent passing. We are so fortunate that she and Bill Grant graced us with their presence on Old Homestead, much less that they recorded nine wonderful albums for us and let us reissue five of their self-produced albums from the 70's. Delia Bell and Bill were such a joy to work with, and we loved having them at the Charlotte Bluegrass Festival for all the years that we ran it. It is hard to find just one song to showcase her talents, but here is a song that seemed like it must have been written just for her. Jake Jenkins and Allan Phelps do some nice work on this one on the banjo and dobro, respectively, and Karl Shifflett also has a nice fiddle break on this one. However, let’s be clear – the true talent on this one is Delia Bell.
