专辑简介

I've always felt that if Ralph Peer had recorded my Mom's family in Charlotte instead of The Carter Family in Bristol in 1927, country music history could have been very different! I don't mean to brag, it's just that they were that talented! Mom's family, The Drye's of New Salem, N.C. , had Grampa on fiddle, Uncle Homer on guitar & fiddle, Uncle Croft on stand up bass & guitar, Aunt Gladys on mandolin, Aunt Ramel on vocals and Mom on guitar and vocals.

This CD is a tribute to the wonderful music they brought to our lives. "The Little Red School" and "The West, A Nest and You" are traditional songs I learned from them and my Mom is singing harmony with me on both! It is recorded as if we are all sitting around Mom's living room on a Saturday night. The incredible fiddle and mandolin are played by Mr. Alan Stowell.
