Bluegrass from banjo master Jim Smoak and the Louisiana Honeydrippers. Smoak began his career in 1952 with Carl and Pearl Butler. Within two months he was hired by Bill Monroe to play banjo in the Bluegrass Boys, with whom he is heard on the classic tunes "Close By," "My Little Georgia Rose," and "Put My Little Shoes Away." He also played with Little Jimmie Dickens, Bruce Broussard, Arthur "Guitar Boogie" Smith (he replaced Don Reno), and Hylo Brown. His songs have been covered by the Newgrass Revival, J.D. Crowe, and the Dixie Chicks. Smoak is still active today, playing regularly with the Mountain Dew Hillbillies. This title contains previously unreleased material, as well as the original material recorded by Dr. Harry Oster.
