The fiddle man in our bluegrass band in early 70s introduced me to this album and Vassar Element's recordings. They both played "out of the box"!!

I've thought that before too. I love Curly's work. He was in a class of his own, in my opinion. I've tried for years to incorporate Chalker inspired work into my playing. Its helped me. I listened to Chalker recordings and really tried to copy his work, particularly when I first started learning. He was a fantastic musician.
