Preachin’ In That Wilderness

Description

This is a CD reissue of a cassette that Andy and his friends made for Marimac, an important recording company in the Old Time Music trade, back in 1990. Not much has changed: Andy, Bill and Eleanor are all still making music, and it’s all one kind of Old Time Music or another. It just seems to improve with age…
