Will the Circle Be Unbroken

Will the Circle Be Unbroken (1972) by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is a largely acoustic project that pairs the band's country rock background with veteran country, bluegrass, and folk musicians. The album focuses on traditional songs and instrumental pieces with prominent banjo, fiddle, acoustic guitar, upright bass, and close vocal harmonies, and is notable for bridging generations of players and helping renew interest in American roots music.
