Janie: If you like Norman Blake's guitar playing you must get "Blackberry Blossom". Rounder put it on CD in 2000. It was the peak of his art. Scary if you are a guitar-slinger wannabe like many out here.
Norman Blake & Rich O'Brien did one for Shanachie called "Be Ready Boys", in 1999. Great! Very folky, great songs, recorded like you are sitting in an old barn watching two master at work!
