Archibald Camp had been playing the banjo for 70 years when he wrote to Folkways Records in January 1961, offering a tape of his banjo playing for their consideration. Camp was one of the few remaining five-string banjo players who remembered the original arrangements, and he feared that this old music would be lost forever unless he recorded them. In this significant album Camp revived fifteen of the twenty banjo solos from memory. Liner notes include a copy of Camp's letter, his autobiography, notes on banjo listening, and an introduction to the country music in the Folkways catalog.

Producer Jerry Williams Jr. (aka Swamp Dogg) took Louisiana legend Lightnin’ Slim’s down home country blues, a cross between Muddy Waters and Lightnin’ Hopkins, and added some soul and funk to the mix – making 1971’s “High & Low Down” one of Slim’s most interesting albums of his impressive career. All selections have been newly remastered.
