The Alexander Family With The Happyland Trio - Far Far Away, 1966, Bluegrass Gospel Masterpiece

I always say "listening to this music won't save my soul", but maybe I'm wrong, because Dallas Alexander "sincerely hope God will bless each and everyone who listens to this record." - So there you go.

Dallas Alexander was a major character in the Ohio bluegrass scene and recorded, played on and produced many albums, as far as I know. There is not much information out there, but I sincerely hope this will change sooner or later.

I was born in Jackson County, Kentucky. Started playing guitar at the age of 14, playing at Renfro Valley and other radio stations in Kentucky. I moved to Ohio in 1954 and in 1961 the Lord saved me. Since that time he has called me into the ministry. The children help me on this record; Dallas Jr., Elsie, Ronald, and Linda, age 7, does the recitation on two songs. I have two other children, Darroll, age 5, and Peggy, age 4. I am privileged to have the Happyland Trio with me on this album. Ron Caddell of Norwood, Ohio, plays the 5 string banjo, Albert Fox of Norwood, Ohio, plays the violin and Charlie Chamberlin plays guitar and sings tenor. Charlie has been with me 3 years. All of these boys were born in Kentucky. I sincerely hope God will bless each and everyone who listens to this record.
