CALLAHAN BROTHERS

Monday, November 17, 2008


20 original recordings from the '30's and '40's by the Callahan Brothers. This is great rowdy depression era hillbilly music featuring the Callahan's harmony yodeling. Songs range from sentimental to bawdy, and their version of "She Came Rollin' Down The Mountain" is worth the price of admission.
