------ About artist/band Bill Monroe
no doubt, bill monroe was one of the greatest! i also think it was a very selfish act on his part for being so against jimmy martin becoming a member of the grand ole opry. they are both in heaven now where there are no big I's and little u's i hope they are happy and singing together now. jimmy martin is still king of bluegrass!!jimmy had some tough breaks down here, but kept on with a style that can't be beaten!! sing on jimmy, we love you!! a devoted fan, Betty Wooton Hyden, ky

------ About artist/band Bill Monroe
Many members of my family talk about Bill and Charlie Monroe being part of our family. My grandfather was Jacob Lundy Runyon and he had a sister, Rose Runyon. It is a belief in my family that Rose Runyon was the mother of Bill and Charlie Monroe. Is there any truth in that belief?

Shine Hallelujah Shine | Reviewer: Christine Rose
------ About the song Shine Hallelujah Shine performed by Bill Monroe
I have heard many of Bill Monroes songs but this is one of my all time favorites. Beyond the delightful spiritual message so often prevalent in Monroe's songs, there is a playful vocal and musical element that keeps one singing this song day after day after day. Ah'm a-gonna shine!
