Uncensored Folk Music of Austria

This recording grew out of Arhoolie founder Chris Strachwitz’s interest in regional Austrian folk music. The interest developed in the mid-1950s when he was stationed with the US Army near Salzburg, Austria. In 1967 and again in 1971, Strachwitz and colleague Johnny Parth traveled the backroads of Austria to find and record this music. Many of them in this collection are sung in a unique Austrian dialect, and several of them are considered to be ribald.
