Subject: RE: Geronimo's Cadillac
Well, Jack beat me to it, but I strongly second his choice of the Jim Ringer version as the absolute best ever. Philo/Rounder put out a Best Of Jim Ringer CD last year, (Philo 1202) 17 cuts in all. It does not include Geronimo's Cadillac, however.

I just checked, The Bramble And The Rose, Philo 1055, 1978, is still available, but only on cassette. (I know that Rounder has some titles still available in vinyl, so if a person prefers that, just ask them) Info, including a sound sample of Geronimo's Cadillac here~~ http://www.rounder.com/rounder/catalog/bylabel/phil/1055/1055.html

I was fortunate to be able to see Jim and Mary McCaslin (another great voice) live in St. Louis in the mid seventies. I also have all of his albums, (I think) including two with the Sweets Mill String Band.
