Special thanks to Drew Christie who hosts the Democracy for the Cartoons blog. He found this album at a record store we went to in Astoria, Oregon called Mallternative. He and I were out there for a festival called Batwater that included the amazing Michael Hurley and also the talented Freak Mountain Ramblers. I did not get a chance to go this year because I moved to Alaska this summer. Drew is currently working with some people on animation parts for a documentary or Snockumentary if you will, which I believe will be entitled something like Doc Snock and the Land of Lo-Fi. I have a good feeling it should be awesome and I can't wait for it to come out.

The album itself is really good, but there is some surface noise. I still feel it is enjoyable and it kind of gives it a rustic feel, so I would still recommend downloading it.

Old-Time Ballads From the Southern Mountains
















Hello once again. I do not have the liner notes or track listing for this particular album. However, I personally enjoy it... so i thought I'd share anyhow. A couple of the tracks sound scratchy, but for the most part the quality is good. Whelps enjoy.
