Music reviews of Ballads From Her Appalachian Family Tradition

Music Review: Pure Mountain Music
Rating: 5 Stars

I first heard of Jean Ritchie through a video on old time music and this is the first cd i've been able to find of her recordings, the other ones are already out of print. If you love old time mountain music or traditional bluegrass, you will want this cd in your collection. Jean has one of the purest voices that i've ever heard in mountain style music. The only other Person that comes to mind is Anita Carter. There both Appalachian Angels in my opinion.

Description of Ballads From Her Appalachian Family Tradition

Jean Ritchie is a national treasure, one of America's finest and best known traditional singers. She grew up in Viper, Kentucky, and is part of a large family, the famous "Singing Ritchies of Kentucky." The ballads on this recording are outstanding Appalachian versions of the "Child ballads," English and Scottish narrative songs collected and published by scholar Francis James Child in the late 19th century. The songs tell of true and lost love, jealousy, treachery, grief, death, and the supernatural. This reissue of her landmark Folkways recordings of British traditional ballads in Appalachia brings her clear, pure voice and timeless songs to new generations of listeners.
