The singing of Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard is deeply rooted in tradition. Their performance has the special quality that is only achieved when two people with a shared aesthetic have been singing together for many years. Their sound has a timeless strength and beauty. Hazel and Alice sing about the everyday lives of real people with an honesty that illuminates the essential meaning and value of the ordinary and the commonplace. -from the notes by Ethel Raim
