Music of Coal: Mining Songs from the Appalachian Coalfields

Here's some news on a new two-disc CD recently released by the Lonesome Pine Office on Youth. The whole project is a pretty neat idea--a musical history of one of Appalachia's enduring icons, coal mining, with proceeds benefiting a good cause: youth development in the area.

Check them out and order a copy. It's a limited production-only about 5,000 copies-so they're likely to go fast!!
