Dwight Lamb and Elvin Campbell “Old Time Fiddle Classics”

Description

This CD collects two LPs, “Old-Time Fiddlin’ Left-Handed Style” 1 and 2, recorded in 1967 and 1972 by the unstoppable duo of Dwight Lamb and Elvin Campbell. Dwight contributes intricate and fascinating fiddle, and Elvin brings graceful, rock-solid guitar backup. The two longtime friends, both masters of their instruments, power through a passel of the best tunes from Missouri Valley old-time fiddle contests and local dances. This crisp, powerful music is as addictive to listen to as it is to play.

Dwight shows us how it’s done…left-handed style!
