LP collection for sale
Fred Bartenstein, long time bluegrass radio personality, historian and photographer, is offering several hundred vinyl LPs from his extensive collection for sale online.
These include both bluegrass and traditional country albums, many of them iconic releases and some not available on CD.
Prominent titles that caught my eye include Pickin’ and Fiddlin’ from The Dillards and Byron Berline, Ragged But Right from The Greenbriar Boys, and Bluegrass Favorites On College And Campus from Hylo Brown.
The entire catalog can be viewed online.
