This is one of the most creative interpretations of traditional American folk music I've had the pleasure of listening to. Prior to discovering Pelt, I never imagined someone performing old Appalachian folk standards with instruments like the tanpura and the sitar. It's following the example set by John Fahey, where he took inspiration from both old-time folk and blues while incorporating elements of raga music.

Such a great song, so many brilliant interpretations, this being one of them. I love Kaleidoscope's version. Very different. Thank you.
beautiful, I even have both CD's
