In the original notes to this recording, Mike Seeger writes, InchThe songs on this album were recorded by commercial companies and the Library of Congress in the southeastern mountains between 1925 and 1935, and show the first attempts of the hill musicians to 'make a hit' with old traditional songs that had been in the mountains since pioneer days.Inch Album Tracks 1.

This album, recorded in 1960-1961, shows these three musicians' passionate love for mountain music. The New Lost City Ramblers learned their music from impeccable sources-from old time commercial discs made between 1922 and 1941, and from field recordings in the Library of Congress Archive of American Folk Song.
