A celebration for the 2007 Oklahoma Centennial. Acie explores Oklahoma's folklore and history in songs for the whole family. Also has James Talley's tribute to the OKC Bombing and interviews with dust bowl survivors.
Bio / Background
In Old Oklahoma was written and produced in honor of the state's centennial in 2007. It has a rich folklore because many of the characters and events happened in the past century. The outlaws, the cowboys, native Americans, actors, oil wells, the Okies, the Dust Bowl. These are all in the memory of the generation before this.
The area was wild and unsettled and slowly became tamed and some of the exploits of the heroes are sung about on this cd.
Pawnee Bill, Roy Rogers, Kentucky Daisey, Gene Autry, Tom Mix and Lucille Mullhaul, Will Rogers, Woody Guthrie, Jim Thorpe, OA Cargill, Pistol Pete, Belle Starr, Geronimo, Pretty Boy Floyd, The Buffalo Soldiers. All Oklahoma characters. Events include the great land rush, the migration of the Okies, The Trail of Tears, settling the treeless plains and living in dugouts
Acie Cargill has been called one of America's best songwriters. This album is contemporary folk music with a lot of Oklahoma influenced western swing.
↓ more ↓It is Family Friendly
The last section of the album is a series of interviews with old-timers remembering the early days of Oklahoma.
One of Acie's favorite songs is Mary's Dream based on an actual dream of flying in an old biplane and circling high enough to see the various parts of the state. Acie uses Oklahoma musicians and singers to help him get the effect he wants. He has captured the flavor of early Oklahoma and it's folklore. Some of the pieces are done as monologues on top of musical accompaniement. such as Okies about the many poor people fleeing the land that became uninhabitable because of drought, and Will Rogers, which is based on his actual wit.
It ends with an Oklahoma tent revival song Power in the Blood with Floyd and Nadine Morgan.
