GUEST,Mark A. Supernatural Ballads....?? (58* d) Supernatural Ballads....?? 06 Oct 01


Hello:

I'm a big fan of traditional American music and classic performers like Dock Boggs, Bill Monroe, Roscoe Holcomb, etc. I have a question that maybe some of you folks can answer....

Are there any CD anthologies available containing specifically traditional American SUPERNATURAL ballads (i.e., songs about ghosts, hauntings, witches, talking animals, you name it.....). I'd really like to find something along the lines of the Harry Smith or Mike Seeger collections, but devoted to American supernatural ballads.

Any recommendations or advice? Thanks.
