I recently found this CD while researching for some other stuff on Amazon. I think any of you who like old time string band music will really like the Camp Creek Boys. I'm only sorry this seems to be the only recordings they made. If any of you have some more information on this great group, don't hesitate to drop me a line or a post in the comments section on this site. Look over the list of songs below. I think some of you fiddlers will really relate to a lot of them. Maybe one of you can tell me if number nine is mislabeled or if there is a tune named "Fire In The Mountain". I thought the old fiddle tune was called "Fire On The Mountain".
