Ep 29- Cry From The Cross by Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain Boys w/ Abe Partridge
Episode 29
Album: Cry From The Cross
Artist: Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain Boys
Special Guest: Abe Partridge
CT&OB was in Pineville, KY for the Laural Cove Music Festival in June. We got to see a bunch of our great friends, see some Amazing artists but also talk with Abe Partridge.
CT&OB met up with Abe Partridge at his cabin to learn about his time with Independent Fundamental Baptist Church Bible Colleges, why he picked this album, the difference between different religious music and the information we got to learn about the Ralph Stanley and his band members. Abe was full of knowledge and the CT&OB members could listen to him speak all day about everything he knows. We got to also hear from Abe's wife Cathy who told us about her family's music history. We had such a great time with Abe and Cathy, we can't thank them enough for letting us record in their cabin due to the weather not cooperating with us that morning!
