I believe at this time Del's band was called the Dixie Pals, but I have seen it labeled both ways. The announcer introduces them as The Dixie Pals so I would go with that. This is some very nice early Del McCouryDel McCoury Band (Del and His Dixie Pals)

This second one is from just about ten months ago. It has special guest David Grisman on the last seven songs. There was a track that was just 3 min. of dead air that I did not include. There are a couple of recording drop outs in John Henry and Half A Mind, but overall it is pretty good.Del McCoury Band

Hello AZ. Well, sir, you've done it again. Del old or new is del-icious. Thanks so much for the spectacular bluegrass. It's the perfect antidote to walls of water falling from the sky in January in Oregon. You've made our day once again. All the best to you,
