NOTE: Blogspot has recently changed the default when you click on blogspot-hosted images so that they open in a viewer that doesn't easily allow for zooming in on oversized images, at least on my machine/browser. This kind of defeats the purpose of these posts. The easy way around that is to right click (control click on a mac) and choose open link in new browser or new tab in the drop down menu that appears.

Ola Belle Reed

released on Rounder Records (021) in 1973

Cover design by Millea Kenin. Front cover photo by Gei Zantzinger. Back cover photos by Ken Jacobs & Ruth Zantzinger.

"Ola Belle has come to deplore many of the recent tendencies of country musicians to become "ardently chauvinistic about their tastes in old-timey, bluegrass, etc. to the exclusion of all other music. This development runs directly counter to Ola Belle's affirmations of music as a unifying and comradely tie among people."
