Marty Stuart - Whiskey And Rhinestones: The Ultimate Collection (2008)

UK 2008 collection of recordings from the Country Music great. Marty Stuart, one of only a handful of genuine neo-traditionalists, is steeped in Country Music history. Unlike the modern Jones, Fusing Honky Tonk with a gritty Rockabilly backbeat and a fondness for Bluegrass - ominous and soothing, distracting and rekindling, the record captures moments many thought modern Nashville had buried in the sands of time. Marty Stuart is without doubt Country Music's Renaissance Man, who may be as progressive as any artist out there but his country roots run deep and wide as can be found throughout this stunning collection.
