Both reissued on compilation:
The Cumberland Three, Songs Of The Civil War, Rhino Records, 2xCD, R2 70739, 1991

The Cumberland Three were:

Gil Rubin (Gilbert “Gill” Robbins, 1931-2011) father of actor Tim Robbins.
John Stewart (1939-2008) of Daydream Believer and Kingston Trio fame (61-67 lineup.)
John Montgomery – 'nother California boy.

14 of 23 tracks arranged by Oscar Brand.
Produced by Pete Kameron, co-founder of Track Record (Hendrix & The Who) and the LA Weekly newspaper.

The only “Southerners” are of the SoCal type. I guess Brand is the North.

Notes:
PDQ's Harold Thom was in The Cumberlands. I don't think he was a member of the old ...Trio. Maybe one of the reunion bands. (See: 01 Feb 08 - 10:00 PM, above.)

Gil Robbins was on The National Geographic, Songs of the Civil War, LP, 00789, 1976. Which has absolutely none of the songs GUEST,Bridget was looking for (see: 05 Feb 11 - 06:31 PM, above.)
