Dave produced and played a number of instruments while his brother
Bob recorded, mixed and engineered the

apt description:

songs are completely reinvented with great success on this all-new collection. These
original arrangements capture Yoakam’s platinum selling sounds while bringing it back
to the bare-root essence of bluegrass." Catalog #: CMH-8796

Dwight Yoakum CD that Dave produced. CMH
Records continues to be a leader in the field of country and Bluegrass music. As
you will hear in this outstanding collection of classic and contemporary roots
music, the independent record label from Los Angeles has much to celebrate. CMH
Records was born in 1975 when founders Martin Haerle and Arthur Smith teamed up
to record and release the music of the biggest names in Bluegrass. Lester Flatt,
The Osborne Brothers, Jim & Jesse, Mac Wiseman, Merle Travis, Grandpa Jones,
Carl Story, Don Reno, The Bluegrass Cardinals, The Stonemans and many others
recorded some of their finest work for CMH during the ‘70s and ‘80s. The label
accumulated a rich catalog of classic American music, garnering numerous awards
and Grammy nominations along the way. Catalog #: CMH-1799Bob
Dick's first solo project is an excellent showcase of his instrumental and
vocal skills (Bob sings lead and harmony, plays bass, mandolin, guitar, and
fiddle!) as well as his arranging, recording and engineering expertise.
Featuring guest visits by brother David Dick on banjo and the New Hampshire
master of the Dobro, Roger Williams. Bluegrass with a modern flavor, yet
true to the spirit of Christmas which inspired these classic songs, this CD
deserves a place in any acoustic music lover's collection.
