Take a generous sampling of Apalachian folk music, add a dash of Celtic sentimentality and flavor it with the blues, all accompanied on reproduction musical instruments of the 1760-1820 era, and you have an idea what this record record sounds like.
Bio / Background
Jim Krause moved to Kansas to attend Bethel College, North Newton, Kansas in the fall of 1971. While he was a student there, he developed an interest in the folk music of the United States. A work/study program in eastern Kentucky during Jim's junior year furthered a continuing interest in American folk music. After completing his senior vocal recital, a pioneering venture that included both traditional and original material, Jim graduated from Bethel in May, 1975 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in vocal music performance.
Many of the Appalacian folk songs he presents had their beginnings in sixteenth or seventeenth century Great Britain, or earlier. Not content to stop there, Jim also explores the African influence in American folk music performing vocal and instrumental selections on the gut strung gourd banjo.
