Album Description:
AS HEARD ON NPR!
"Even though the music's being played right in front of you, you expect to hear crackles and hisses as if the sounds were being torn from a salvaged 78." - Independent Weekly
Terrific renditions of old-time classics from the Carolina Chocolate Drops as they reclaim their African American NC Piedmont string band musical traditions! This young group is the hottest thing to hit the old-time music community in decades, and have grabbed the attention of folks like Taj Mahal, Mike Seeger, Alice Gerrard, and John Sebastian.

I don't care how many string bands you've listened to, you ain't heard nothing like the Carolina Chocolate Drops.

I ran across these guys by accident on MySpace and I am SO glad I did! Both this and the related Sankofa Strings album, _Colored Aristocracy_ are great. I am so glad to see people my age that know what old-time is and are out there playing it.
