Do you have an electronic file with this album by any chance? I've been looking for a CD and haven't found any. Thanks

If you mean do I have a CD of this album, then no I don't. As far as I'm aware it's never been released on CD for some reason. What I've put up here has been transferred from a cassette I brought many years ago.

I have listened to this album every day since I found it. Its inspired me to learn all of the guitar pieces in the album. Its challenging as I've never learnt by ear before and I'm filling in the gaps with what's available but there's resources all over the place it just takes a bit of looking. I know Norman's backing parts as well as the tune for devil chased me round the stump, still need to learn a few more "blakeisms" before I can really make it sound like the record but yeah this album is the best

I first became aquanted with Over The Waterfall in 1980 on a flight from Auckland NZ to Honolulu Hawaii. An enquiry made to the Airline revealed the tunes name and the players who recorded it. The Grandpa Jones Family. Eventually, I managed to locate the record and had it send to me here in Aotearoa-New Zealand. There was a narritive on the album cover giving some detail about the history of the song and its origins as an old fiddle tune from Anglo - Celtic origins Every once in a while KZbin.reads my mind and up comes the tune again giving me some listening pleasure once again.

Nancy must have been playing bass on her Chelo. Very Nice fiddle tune! Norman is such a great guitarist. He's on of the very best ever.

Norman's songs always seem to tell a good story of some sort. The Gensing Sullivan is a good example -- with a bitter sweet, plantif ending. A lot of Woody Guthrie songs were in a similar vain. Many of Woody's tunes gave the impression there was hope to be be found if people recognized injustices and stood up for what was right for people. Norman's songs aren't exactly like that but tell of everyday people doing their best in life. I'd like to find this album on CD,if possible. I'm a big fan of these folks.

Sad news for fans of acoustic/traditional music. I talked to Norman recently...said "he doubted he'd ever get on stage again". It cut me to the quick to her those words. I assume it's health stuff gettin' to him after all those years on the road.. Let's pray he'll feel better and change his mind.
