Copperfields

Copperfields is the fifth album by bluegrass group The Dillards. The album continues the country rock style begun on the group's previous album, Wheatstraw Suite, featuring the same prominent orchestra and increased use of drums (played by Paul York), electric bass and even electric guitar on "Brother John." Herb Pederson, who replaced Doug Dillard starting with Wheatstraw Suite, assumes a more prominent role on this album, penning more songs, contributing more vocals, and appearing more prominently on the album cover.
