Jim & Jesse

`Jim & Jesse: The Old Dominion Masters’ (Pinecastle)

After trolling through mainstream country waters for much of the late 1960s and early ’70s — and snaring a few hits along the way — first-generation bluegrass stars Jim and Jesse McReynolds founded Old Dominion Records in 1973, and returned to making straight-up bluegrass albums. Too often overlooked in favor of their 1950s and early ’60s work, these four engaging recordings feature not only Jim & Jesse but a handful of stellar bluegrass sidemen, and remain one of the best places to hear banjoist Vic Jordan.
