A nod to the early settlers to the mountains of Appalachia. The Irish settlers eventually converted their songs into a form of mountain music and bluegrass due to the change in instruments and the isolation of the area. Dirk Powell, Tim O'Brien, and John Herrmann wanted to stay true to the Appalachian roots of the mountains and did an incredible job. "Raleigh and Spencer" is from "Songs from the Mountain" released in 1998.

These three musicians were so taken with the book, 'Cold Mountain' by Charles Frazier, that they wanted to make a companion cd. This is prior to both the movie and the movie soundtrack for 'Cold Mountain'. The album is filled with authentic music you could hear throughout the mountains during the Civil War period and before. You can hear it now if you are extremely lucky. Enjoy the past and now the future! "Songs From the Mountain" is an enduring testament to the music of the Appalachians. ENJOY!!!

I don't know what type of bluegrass this community enjoys, so I've put up samples of different styles. If any of these songs are inappropriate, please let me know. Thank you, Moppet

This is my favorite CD I own. Have to find a second copy in case I misplace or mess my copy up.

Maybe somebody needs to start a new corn crop...hmm..... You have given me my smile today! Thank you very much. I appreciate all comments, but especially the ones that make me laugh. That helps get through the rough days. I'm sending you another "dry" song. Uncle Jesse is in this one. It's a totally different genre, so I hope you don't mind. I just have to send it after your comment. If you just listen to the words, I think you'll get a smile or 2! My very best to you, Moppet
