John McCutcheon
hot platter! THE WIND THAT SHAKES THE BARLEY: HAMMER DULCIMER MUSIC: This classic -- John McCutcheon's second album, originally released on the June Appal label back in 1977 -- was one of the first LPs ever to feature hammered dulcimer on every cut. Its imaginative mix of Appalachian fiddle tunes, old-time country, and Celtic melodies turned it into a hit in folk circles and beyond, selling tens of thousands of copies on LP and introducing the instrument's melodic and percussive complexities to a wide audience. The hammered dulcimer and McCutcheon have traveled a long way since, but this remains a groundbreaking recording -- and an engaging introduction to a fascinating instrument and a latter-day folk icon.
