Ship in the Clouds: Old Time Instrumental Music

Andy Cahan, Laura Fishleder, and Lisa Ornstein
Ship in the Clouds: Old Time Instrumental Music Musicians Andy Cahan on banjo, Laura Fishleder on guitar, and Lisa Ornstein on fiddle collaborate to offer a fine collection of almost entirely instrumental interpretations of old-time music. The performers present music rooted primarily in rural areas across the United States. One track features vocals: “Elkhorn Ridge,” sung by Cahan. Interestingly, in addition to the well-known traditional folk song “Polly Put the Kettle On,” a similarly titled track, “Molly Put the Kettle On,” is also included. However, as Cahan makes clear in the liner notes, the two songs “have nothing to do with [each other].” The liner notes from this 1978 recording provide brief descriptions of the origins of each of the tracks and short biographies of the three musicians.
