Eck Robertson: Famous Cowboy Fiddler LP

January 25, 2009 by Eli Smith 9 Comments

Eck Robertson LP by you.

This is an awesome solo fiddle record of Texas fiddler Eck Robertson, recorded by Mike Seeger, John Cohen & Tracy Schwarz – The New Lost City Ramblers, at Eck’s home in 1963. Robertson was the first person to record and issue country music on vinyl record back in 1922, and as the notes to this late era LP (released in 1991) point out, he may also be the last!  This is really a fantastic record, put out by County Records and as far as I know has not been reissued anywhere.
