Muleskinner - Live-The Original Television Soundtrack

The first super group of Bluegrass music, Muleskinner, as they were later to be called, made their first appearance ever on what was the first ever nationally televised program of Bluegrass music. Taped before a live in-studio audience at KCET-TV, Hollywood CA, in February 1973, this historic, once believed lost, original soundtrack recording contains nine songs from the original televised PBS program. Four bonus songs, edited from the final TV broadcast, were unearthed for this now classic recording by this legendary group that influenced a new generation of bluegrass musicians from Bela Fleck, Mark O'Connor, Marty Stuart, Ricky Skaggs to Alison Krause, Nickel Creek and "O' Brother" generation. After making brief stage appearances a month later followed by one studio album and finally the untimely death of Clarence White in July 1973, Muleskinner never performed again as a group. This album is dedicated to Clarence White, a virtuoso human being and guitarist.
