Charlie Monroe - Starday LPs


Here are two LPs that Charlie Monroe recorded during his retirement from the music industry. The first LP, Charlie Monroe Sings Again, was recorded somewhere around 1960 for Bob Mooney at REM Records. The second LP, Lord Build Me a Cabin, I assume was recorded at about the same time, but I'm not sure about this. In fact, I have no concrete information on the latter LP. I assume also that the personnel is the same on both records.

Charlie Monroe - guitar, vocal
J.D. Crowe - banjo
Bob Joslin - fiddle
Ed Stacey - bass
Kenny Whalen - electric guitar
