#NowPlaying an acoustic medley to ease into the new year...
BILL DAVIS and his Singing Dulcimer - SMOKY MOUNTAIN MELODIES (Old Tradition, 1972). Bill was a renowned dulcimer luthier from Gatlinburg, TN, who could play too! Accompanied here on a few songs by folksinger and guitarist George Anne Egerton. #BillDavis#dulcimer#folk@vinylrecords
... #NowPlaying DOC WATSON ON STAGE FEATURING MERLE WATSON (Vanguard, 1970). Recorded live at Cornell University and Town Hall, New York (dates?). A wonderful collection of traditional old timey tunes by Doc & Merle at their flatpickin finest. #DocWatson#OldTime#bluegrass#folk#CountryBlues#gospel@vinylrecords
#NowPlaying Mahalia Jackson with the swinging Falls-Jones Ensemble - The World's Greatest Gospel Singer (Columbia, 1955). The title is bold but not wrong, could even drop the qualifier had she ventured into secular music. Fitting for a rainy Sunday afternoon. #MahaliaJackson#gospel@vinylrecords
