by Mark A. HumphreyDel and Jerry McCoury pursued individual careers in bluegrass before the Pennsylvania-born siblings teamed up for the 1987 Rounder album, The McCoury Brothers. Older brother Del had played banjo before switching to guitar and singing lead with Bill Monroes Blue Grass Boys in 1963-1964. He subsequently led his Dixie Pals and recorded for both Rounder and Rebel. Jerry sang and played bass with Red Allen and the Kentuckians, as well as with Don Reno and Bill Harrell. The McCoury Brothers sole album together to date is a wonderful close-harmony exposition of bluegrass, rooted in the brother duo tradition.
