  • Thanks for a great post! Classic Carter sound if I've ever heard it. Sara's distinctive lead singing, Maybelle's alto, along with A.P.'s bass coming in on the chorus. And the crowning jewel, Maybelle's wonderful "scratch" guitar work. Put it all together and you have one of the sweetest sounds this side of Heaven. I never tire of listening to their music. FIVE STARS!

  • I love how after all these years, the Carter Family videos, are my most popular ones, It gives me hope, some people out there still know what real music is :-) thanks fot the comment

    I still have a TON of Carter family songs to post, probably a couple hundred

  • I love the way they say "Virgin-yee". When I was growing up here in N.C. all the old-timers talked like that (Georgie, Floridie, Alabamie, etc.). It's nice to hear some of the old time speech preserved.

  • Did I just hear them say chimley? I live near the old Carter place at clinch mountain in VA. and I've heard the term chimley used instead of chimney.
