New - V/A - As Time Draws Near - LP

***An austere and dialed compilation of 1920's and 1930's ballads. All plaintive solo vocals accompanied by the banjo. No dance songs. Instead you get intense very American tunes about existential angst, murder, love, mystical happenings and so on. The manna.

As far as we know, this is the first record to compile purely hard hitting banjo ballads from the golden 78 era. A treasure....
