OLD MOUNTAIN: STRINGBAND SONGS & TUNES |  |
Description:
Old Mountain Stringband Songs & Tunes is Living Era's definitive single CD collection of the appealing country music genre that permeated the soundtrack of the hugely acclaimed film Cold Mountain. The irresistible combination of fiddles and banjos is one indelible aspect of America's musical heritage that all can enjoy. The heyday of country stringband music was captured in recordings of the late 20s and early 30s, when many of the finest practitioners were in their prime. Tony Russell has carefully chosen representative tracks by each of the old masters, including some familiar names Gid Tanner & his Skillet Lickers, Uncle Dave Macon, Fiddlin' John Carson, Charlie Poole, Seven Foot Dilley, Georgia Yellow Hammers, Grayson & Whitter – and many others largely forgotten today. |
