One of my mando heroes is Donna Stoneman. This song in particular has always fascinated me but I've never been able to find recordings or pretty much any other electric bluegrass style stuff by the Stonemans: youtu.be/2zrN-BXfiIY
Any suggestions where to look?

Have you looked at Freegal? freegalmusic.com/home . There are at least a dozen of her tracks out there. Some solo, some with others (including Ronnie).
I access it through my local library.

Thanks for this! I did find on Freegal where she did Orange Blossom Special in an album called "Hats Off! A Tribute to Bill Monroe" and it's an absolute banger! There's also Under the Double Eagle. Still haven't found any electric mandolin recordings : /

Not much at all for "electric stuff".
But there's a guy in the Netherlands who has a mail order auction and direct sales from his warehouse of LP's & CD's. tens of thousands. He's been in the business since the 1960's. He has quite a load of Stoneman Family original LP's.
If you send me a message here, I can give you his link... and some info on how cheap & easy it is to get those LPs.
