Using Gillian Welch and David Rawlings - Annabelle - this is a study of American Tenant Farmers in the 1930's-40's and one particular family and the mother's heartbreak due to the death of her daughter, Annabelle.

@HLutherO I am a new fan as well. Hell On Wheels brought me here. I love this song!

These could be pictures of my family. They were sharecroppers in Cleveland County, NC, during the 20s and 30s, the Depression. Times were hard and I have heard the stories and seen some pictures. These touch my heart and never fail to make me proud to have descended from these people. Thank you for posting, I cry every tie I watch.

So very beautiful.

Justified :'(

Really love the way you've put this together. My late father-in-law's family were sharecroppers and he left the south for Chicago! Little wonder!!! Great job with a great song.

What an amazing talent Gillian & Dave are. The 1st time I ever heard of them was from the doc ' Down from the Mountain ' & I loved their music from the very 1st time I heard them. This is REAL music.
-
Yep... went looking for a music video after hearing part of the song on "Hell on Wheels"... glad I did. I really enjoy the song, and appreciate the compilation of photos that you put with it... well done! Gillian Welch has a new fan in me.

@greanteawoman Amazing compilation you put together there. The history of sharecropping isn't so familiar here in the UK, but reminds me of the medieval feudal system. Annabelle is one of my favourite Gillian songs and your study really brings home the reality of this hard way of life. Thank you so much.

Thank so much to all viewers who helped this video hit the 100k mark! When you get a chance please check out Gillian and David's new CD: The Harrow & The Harvest. The CD is released under: Gillian Welch. It's her first CD release since 2002. It's been a long wait for Welch & Rawlings fans, but The Harrow & The Harvest was well worth the wait! Thanks again guys.
