Rich-R-Tone / Folk Star Story – 12-CD Deluxe Box Set

Pre-order now at the special price – only €169.95 instead of €199.95!

12-CD DeLuxe Box with 148-page book, 317 tracks. Total playing time approx. 840 min.

A true collector’s item and a milestone in the documentation of American roots music: The Rich-R-Tone / Folk Star Story brings together, for the first time, the complete surviving recordings from two of Appalachia’s most fascinating independent labels – Rich-R-Tone and Folk Star Records.

Founded in 1946 in Johnson City, Tennessee, Rich-R-Tone was the first label to release the Stanley Brothers, but its output reached far beyond early bluegrass. From country gospel to hillbilly boogie, from fiddle breakdowns to regional country ballads – these recordings are a treasure trove of musical heritage.

This deluxe edition contains 12 CDs with over 300 tracks, many of them released here for the very first time. The set includes a 148-page hardcover book filled with rare photographs, artist biographies, full discographies, and essays that place the music in its historical context.

All tracks have been carefully restored and remastered. The result is a definitive tribute to the pioneering work of James Hobart Stanton and the artists who helped shape postwar American country and bluegrass music.

Strictly limited edition. The special pre-order price is valid until August 31, 2025. Regular price thereafter: €199.95.

Release date: September 5, 2025.
