Jimmy Campbell's "Pieces of Time" is one of those out of print CDs. Monroe plays mandolin on all of it, I think, and it's one of the last recordings Monroe made. It contains "The Chilly Winds of Shannon" and a blues tune Bill wrote for one of Jimmy's sons.
The 50's Monroe recordings with Jimmy Martin rate right up there. Monroe's power/downstroke playing really grabbed me early on when I was starting in on his style and it still does.
