Norman Blake, Nancy Blake & Tut Taylor
Shacktown Road

It's been 35 years since Tut and Norman, along with Vassar Clements joined John Hartford on the legendary Warner Brothers recording, Aereo-Plain. This is the first recording for old friends Tut & Norman, who along with Nancy Blake preserve wonderful memories and long-held traditions on  SHACKTOWN  ROAD.

The eighteen selections of old timey music are reminiscent of Moon Pies and Nehi soda; resophonic sounds, songs and stories from the South. They recorded in the small house of Jens & Uwe Kruger near Wilkesboro on Old Highway 60, just up the way from Shacktown Road.
