Older,Lawrence Adirondack Songs Ballads & Tunes CD

Songs and ballads, plus a few fiddle tunes, traditional in the Adirondack region where Larry Older cut and peeled pine logs for the pulp mills and tanneries before going to work in the locomotive factory where he concluded his working life. Wonderful versions of Child ballads, broadside ballads, and regional songs, sung with the charming twang of the Adirondack woodsman and generally accompanied by guitar.
