Our Take

Ah, the good ol' days of country music, where the twang of a banjo and the harmonies of a husband-and-wife duo could transport you to a simpler time. Enter Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper, a pair of country music legends whose latest album, "Singles Collection 1947-62," is a delightful trip down memory lane.

From the moment you press play, you're greeted with the sweet sounds of Wilma Lee's angelic voice and Stoney's smooth harmonies. Their chemistry is palpable throughout the album, as they effortlessly weave together tales of love, heartbreak, and everything in between.

Tracks like "There's a Big Wheel" and "Wreck on the Highway" showcase Wilma Lee and Stoney's ability to spin a yarn and tug at your heartstrings. The raw emotion in their voices is enough to bring a tear to even the most stoic listener's eye.

But don't be fooled by the album's vintage sound – Wilma Lee and Stoney's music is timeless, resonating just as deeply with modern audiences as it did with those from decades past. Their authentic approach to country music is a breath of fresh air in an industry saturated with synthetic sounds and auto-tuned vocals.

So grab your cowboy hat and a bottle of moonshine, and let Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Yee-haw!

About the artist

Wilma Lee & Stoney Cooper with The Clinch Mountain Clan

WILMA LEE & STONEY COOPER: The Dynamic Duo of Bluegrass Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper, a husband-wife duo hailing from West Virginia, are like the Bonnie and Clyde of bluegrass music - a formidable force to be reckoned with in the world of country music. With Wilma's powerful vocals and Stoney's masterful fiddling skills, these two have been a staple in the bluegrass scene since the 1940s, cultivating a sound that is both timeless and authentic. Wilma Lee's voice is a force of nature, a twangy, mountain-inflected instrument that can soar to ethereal heights or break your heart into a million pieces with just one note. Stoney Cooper, on the other hand, is a virtuoso on the fiddle, his bow dancing across the strings with a precision and finesse that is truly awe-inspiring. Together, Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper create music that is at once richly traditional and refreshingly modern. Their songs are steeped in the Appalachian folk tradition, but with a contemporary flair that sets them apart from their peers. Tracks like "Big Midnight Special" and "Wreck on the Highway" showcase their ability to blend old-timey charm with a modern sensibility, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. If you're a fan of classic country music, bluegrass, or just good old-fashioned storytelling, Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper are the artists for you. So grab your banjo, pour yourself a moonshine, and get ready to be transported to the hills of West Virginia with these legends of the genre. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
