The Marksmen Quartet
BLUEGRASS MOUNTAIN MOMORIES

Of late, The Blue Ridge Mountains has been romanticized in popular movies such as OH BROTHER, Where Art Thou, and COLD MOUNTAIN.  Many songs like the ones on this collection are snapshots of life as it was lived in the most forgotten parts of our nation. If folklorists had gone into the small towns, hill communities, and hollers throughout the southeast during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, we might understand how the music of the old and new worlds melted into one. We now can see how Appalachian Early Country & Bluegrass music and traditional Mountain Gospel music came together years ago to create this special blend of traditional gospel music that we all know and love.
