Joe
Singleton
had
long admired the style that Joe Val brought to Bluegrass
music, this performance was a tribute to the high tenor
vocals and driving bluegrass that made Joe Val
special.
The
band features Joe Singleton on lead and tenor vocals and two
members of Joe Val’s New England Bluegrass
Boys,
Dave
Dillon,
and
Eric
Levenson.
Dave
Dillon’s years with Joe Val provided us with many treasures
of recording featuring his guitar and vocals backed by Eric
Levenson’s unmistakable bass playing; joining them New
England Banjo champion
Rich
Stillman, the
fantastic fiddling of
Mike
Barnett, and
John Roc on
mandolin.
