a style so often tried and just can't be imitated, try try as they may, isn't anyone can play that song as well as Maybelle. to this day i still try, the Carter scratch is and always belong to Mother Maybelle.

I'm 30 years old and have just discovered the Carter Family through a musical play at a local community theater. I've been listening to their songs for days now, and I guarantee this music will live on forever. My children will listen to it, their children, and so on. Beautiful classics like this never die. Now there's a sunny-sided thought :)

I have never heard this from the Original Carter Family.  Thank you for posting it.

Love this old timey music - no pretentions, no vulgarity and talented.

[gninnuremkcuf]

You just don't get this kind of feeling from modern music. Back then, image meant nothing. It was all about how talented you were as a musician. It's sad that things have digressed to the point they have...

[vornavalley]

That is true. I like the unplugged sound especially.

[throbbylovegusset]

Amen!

[par576]

Just great!

[SettlersMuseum]

All it takes are the first few chords to make me smile.

I'm glad to live where it all started- Southwest Virginia!

[bentoast99]
