Description by OLDIES.com:

The other Monroe brother! This collection is very much the companion to that highly-praised volume, and we may now enjoy and re-evaluate Charlie Monroe's recorded music from 1938 to 1956... including every recording for RCA/Bluebird and Decca. Charlie Monroe knew how to create inspired music on his own terms, and with this historic release.
