The Balladere - Max Hunter
A Legacy of Ozark Folksongs

A rare, original recording of Max singing favorites from his collection.

This recording was found after Max passed away from this good earth. It has been left in its original sound quality to follow the same tradition as his collection. Max recorded this over a period of time while traveling and he wanted to share it with others who enjoy Ozark folksongs as much as he did. Now it is possible. His narration and the sweet sound of his voice is priceless!

Max sings 31 songs combined with narration on each song for approximately 2 hours of good "ole time" Ozark folk music. These are available to purchase in a set of 2 CD's.
