Mickey Miller Sings American Folk Songs
These songs of love and death feature Mickey Miller's pleasantly light vocals and her unusual guitar style, which is meant to approximate banjo frailing. Bess Hawes, a member of the famous song-collecting Lomax family, joins Miller for several duets and occasional guitar accompaniment.
