Haunting folksongs from the Illinois Country September 19, 2007
Joseph M Galloy
I recently attended a private concert by Stroughmatt in Carbondale, Illinois, and many of the songs that he performed are on this album. Stroughmatt learned to play fiddle and speak Missouri French from his friends in Old Mines, Missouri, which is one of the last pockets of French Creole culture and language in former Upper Louisiana (now Missouri and Illinois). The tone of his fiddle is warm, his playing is masterful, and the tracks are wonderfully arranged. Highly recommended.
