- Review
- Southern Mountain Classics features banjo, fiddle, acoustic guitar, bass, and dulcimer, with Wayne Erbsen and his band tackling 16 instrumentals with real exuberance, giving old melodies like "Arkansas Traveler," "John Henry," and "Old Spinning Wheel" new life. For highlights check out the clogging percussion on "Hogeye" or the bluegrass lilt in "Soldier's Joy," "Shady Grove," and "Chicken Reel." ~ Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide
