I kinda shy away from the more hardcore country stuff on the Roadhouse, since Swingin' Doors is loaded with it -- so it's rare that I play any bluegrass, honky tonk, etc. on the Roadhouse.

Red Allen - Beautiful Blue Eyes I'm betting this is off of one of several IMG comps. Nope. It's from the Gusto vinyl compilation Best Of Bluegrass (or somethin' like that -- the album's at home). Same material. You know, when I have a choice, I'd a lot rather rant about the stupidity and arbitrariness of the IMG outfits than about the utterly predictable venality of the majors; they have the rights to an astonishingly wonderful collection of material in the King, Starday, et.al. catalogues, and they hardly ever pass up a chance to put it out in a crappy manner if they put it out at all.
