| | American Folk Music and Folklore Recordings: A Selected List 1991 (American Folklife Center, Library of Congress) |
 | | Each year a panel of specialists in American traditional music meets to select a group of outstanding recordings from the approximately three hundred compact discs, audiocassettes, and phonograph records submitted by producers and manufacturers or suggested by various interested parties. |  | | The music is performed here by the trio that usually provides accompaniment in the three villages with a typical instrumentation of violin, six-string guitar, and twelve- string guitar. |  | | The recording emphasizes the melodic and rhythmic interplay in Irish traditional music in that the fiddlers are accompanied by a bodhr n (frame drum), but no chordal instruments such as piano or guitar. |

 | | The power of the human voice is seen when Hartford's Missouri accent breaks in with a chronicle of the genesis of this tune, or a list of the fiddlers who performed that one. |  | | The reels, rags and breakdowns are exquisitely performed; each player is a master of his instrument, but the nature of the stringband is...that banjos and fiddles sound like banjos and fiddles and without lyrics the tunes blend into one another. |  | | When I heard of the passing of John Hartford earlier this year, it was like losing an old friend you haven't seen in a long while. |
