Riding The Rails

A Documentary About Hobos
Produced By WGBH Boston Video

Rididng The Rails

$21.98

  • Riding the Rails tells the unforgettable story of the 250,000 teenagers who left home during the Great Depression. Featuring a foot-stomping soundtrack with such folk greats a Jimmie Rodgers, Woody Guthrie, Doc Watson, Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry, Riding the Rails vividly combines the clear-eyed memories of witnesses with archival footage of teens riding atop speeding trains and newsreel interviews with lean-bodied kids full of bravado. Striking in detail and depth of emotion, Riding the Rails is that rare film that will inform, dazzle, and profoundly move its audience. This is not a ride you want to miss.

Here we've listed Cds of friends we have recorded and produced here at Ivy Creek Studio.

BYARD RAY(1910-1988) grew up and lived his entire life in the Sodom Laurel community of Madison County in Western North Carolina. Byard, called "The Bard" by most who knew him, was a mentor and personal friend. He encouraged me as well as many other young people to perserve our heritage of music and stories from the Blue Ridge Mountains. This CD is an excellent representation of authentic old-time mountain fiddling, banjo picking and storytelling.
