Mountaineers, Drinkers, Skillet Lickers, Ramblers, and Their Families








This is some classic, hardcore old-timey music. We've got mountaineers, drinkers, skillet lickers, ramblers, and a bushel-full of families. Comes with voluminous educational liner notes, as well.

I really dig "Carve That Possum", which is weird because I'm a really picky eater.
