Charlie Poole & the North Carolina Ramblers, Vol. 2: Old-Time Songs Recorded from 1926 to 1930 / County CD-3508

Description

County CD 3508 / This is the 2nd of 3 volumes by one of the most fascinating and colorful figures in the history of Rural American music: the hard-drinking but fun-loving banjoist & songster who was equally at home with a lively square dance (HONEYSUCKLE, WILD HORSE, RAGTIME ANNIE), a humorous piece (IF THE RIVER WAS WHISKEY, MY GYPSY GIRL) or a highly sentimental ballad. Any lover of old-time southern music will be delighted with the 16 pieces here, beautifully re-mastered to compact disc by Rich Nevins. With notes by Kinney Rorrer, this includes such gems as BALTIMORE FIRE, BILL MASON, SOUTHERN MELODY, IT’S MOVIN’ DAY & BUDDED ROSE.
