Mountain Music is an album by Carl Story and the Rambling Mountaineers released on CMH Records (CMH 6204), the California-based independent label that documented traditional bluegrass and country artists through the late 1970s and early 1980s. Story (guitar, lead vocals)—born 1916 in Lenoir, North Carolina, and widely credited as "the Father of Bluegrass Gospel" for establishing the template of devotional repertoire played in bluegrass style—leads the Rambling Mountaineers: Jeff Dalton (banjo), Larry Beasley (fiddle), Mike McKellar (mandolin), and Mitchell Moser (bass). Tracks include "I Like Mountain Music," "Rank Strangers," "I Saw the Light," and "True Life Blues," reflecting Story's signature blend of Monroe-era bluegrass drive and Stamps-Baxter gospel hymnody. Note: the catalog lacks a release year; CMH 6204 likely dates to the late 1970s or early 1980s based on the label's active period.
