The names Plectrafone Records, Rising Fawn Gathering, Shacktown Road, The Morning Glory Ramblers, and Back Home In Sulphur Springs depict a throwback in spirit, style, attitudes and musicianship to early rural, roots music which was often captured in various unique locations onto 78 RPM recordings.

Norman Blake, Nancy Blake and Tut Taylor
Shacktown Road

"A beautiful journey by a trio of masters ...an array of musical stylings, all in the Americana vein. Blake's vocals, guitar and mandolin, Nancy's cello and, of course, Taylor's flatpicking resonator guitar, combine to blaze a trail for yet another adventure for these musical pioneers"...Jerry Lankford, The Record, Wilkesboro, N.C.

Norman and Nancy Blake
Back Home in Sulphur Springs

This is Norman and Nancy's second recording on Plectrafone Records. Norman's very first critically acclaimed solo record, Home In Sulphur Springs, in 1972, was a return to his musical roots. So here it is - another great collection of songs. "Let' call it Back Home in Sulphur Springs. The first record was a title only. Now I've written the song, plus it's back home."...Norman Blake
