Old Appalachian Folk Songs

[IrishEyes]

When I say OLD, I do mean old, the kind our Great Grands would sing
probably before radio. On the front porch, kids running about, you
know the scene! Don't confuse them with Country, they are orginal
in their own rite.

I love this clip, Thank you for posting this. For me that music is so special, you feel many emotions of the heart in each song.
The sadness a bit of life, the simple needs of the people, the truth they sing about, and the joy of just living. I want to find a
gathering now of this music and hear those fiddles and banjos live again. I am thrilled to see so many young ones still
learning it and carrying it on... Beautiful!
