Bill Monroe - The Best of Bill Monroe - 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection (1999) [CD-Rip]

Original 1950s Decca recordings by the Father of Bluegrass (including eight of his most famous songs), plus a 1984 duet with Ricky Skaggs.

AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
MCA's 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection is a good, basic collection of many of the best-known recordings of Bill Monroe's best-known songs, including "Blue Moon of Kentucky," "In the Pines," "New Mule Skinner Blues," "Uncle Pen," "I'm Sitting on Top of the World," "I Saw the Light," and "My Sweet Blue-Eyed Darlin'." These may not be his most historically important recordings, and undeniably there are some classic songs missing, but this should satisfy casual listeners on a tight budget.
