Sean Belt best old time string band recordings (18) RE: best old time string band recordings 02 Jul 14

First, (and completely off-topic) let me say that it's a pleasure to get back to the Mudcat after an absence of a few years.

If I could only have one old-time music CD, I'd choose any of the great County recordings of Tommy Jarrell. You just can't go wrong with 'Swami Tommy'.

For a more mid-western type of old-time music, check out anything by The Ill-Mo Boys or Pete McMahan's '50 Old-Time Fiddle Gems' (Voyager VOY-366-CD)

Lastly, I'll put in a plug for my band. Is it the 'Best' old-time recording? Probably not. But it is full to the brim with old-timey goodness. The Mound City Slickers' "Made Good For You" available through our website at www.themoundcityslickers.com
