LESTER FLATT AND EARL SCRUGGS SACRED SONGS   GREAT ORIGINAL RECORDINGS This is a  RARE  sealed album on Columbia Records #HS 11202.   There is no release date on the jacket but it was produced by Don Law and Frank Jones - so I'm sure it was early 70's or prior.

The liner notes read as follows:

"SACRED SONGS offers Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs in an inspiring and memorable testament to religious faith.

The old-fashioned gospel hymn is one of the most joyous and expressive affirmations of faith, and among those hailed for their performances of such music, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs rank with the very best.  For many years this team has been making music that has uplifted and cheered many a heavy heart.

Lester Flatt, guitarist, was born near Sparta, in White County, Tennessee, and began his radio career in Roanoke, Virginia.  Later, he joined the Grand Ole Opry and, with Earl Scruggs, formed the duo that has become world famous.  Earl Scruggs was born near Shelby, in Cleveland County, North Carolina.  He developed a distinctive, widely imitated, three-finger banjo style that he first introduced on the Grand Ole Opry.

Joy Bells, Bubblin' in My Soul, I'm  Workin' On a Road (To Glory Land), Give Mother My Crown -- these and half a dozen more make up a not-to-be-missed program of SACRED SONGS, superbly performed by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs."
