Appalachians Soundtrack [CD]

The Appalachians is the CD soundtrack companion piece to the public television documentary of the same name. In the midst of high-tech, cutting-edge, twenty-first –century America, there exists a folk culture that keeps its history alive through song and story and picture, that embraces the new century without being engulfed by it. That place is Appalachia. This soundtrack in conjunction with the documentary traces the development of Appalachia environmentally, culturally, and musically. The soundtrack features tracks from June Carter Cash, Jeff Black, David Grisman, Tony Rice, Ricky Skaggs, The Carter Family as well as many historical tracks never before released on CD.
