Album Summary
2009 release, the first ever 'solo' album from Ricky Skaggs. No studio musicians. No guest artists. Just Ricky Skaggs doing what Ricky Skaggs does best. Highly regarded as an award winning Country and Bluegrass music master, Skaggs is legendary for bringing renewed hope and vitality to the Country music mainstream in the early 1980's with scores of #1 hits and numerous awards and for his triumphant return to his first love, bluegrass, with his successful Skaggs Family Records label. But the true story behind his remarkable career can be traced back to the first music he remembers hearing: the songs his dad loved. From a child prodigy to one of today's musical heroes, Ricky Skaggs continues to inspire his audiences with the heritage and the history of the old time songs embedded deep in his soul by his father.
Ricky Skaggs and The Whites have collected more than enough trophies over their individual careers to fill up each of their mantels. They’ve worked with everyone from Emmylou Harris to Bruce Hornsby, yet they’ve never recorded an entire album together. Finally, after years of blending their voices from the living room to the stage, Ricky Skaggs and The Whites have teamed up on their first collaborative album, Salt of the Earth a gospel masterpiece that promises to be worth the wait.
These 32 tracks chart the course as Skaggs skyrockets from bluegrass phenom to one of the biggest stars in country. The journey takes us from 1980 to 1992 as we hear his #1s Crying My Heart Out over You; I Don't Care; Heartbroke; I Wouldn't Change You if I Could; Highway 40 Blues; Don't Cheat in Our Hometown; Honey (Open That Door); Uncle Pen; Country Boy; Cajun Moon , and Lovin' Only Me plus You've Got a Lover; Something in My Heart , and more!
