NP: Hayseed Dixie | Money Talks

Die Hayseed Dixies über die Hayssed Dixies:
"From the fertile valley of Deer Lick Holler, deep in
the heart of Appalachia, comes a sound that is old yet
new. In an area completely isolated from outside
cultural and musical influence, this band of acoustic
musicians grew up playing the traditional music of
their forefathers. Then, as fate would have it, one
crisp fall afternoon, a stranger passed through the
holler. Well, he almost made it through. Unfortunately
for him, but fortunately for appreciators of great
music worldwide, the stranger crashed his car into a
stately old oak tree at Devil's Elbow Curve. Sadly,
the stranger expired, but his legacy lives on. For
under the back seat of his car, the boys found some
old black vinyl records as they went through his
belongings looking for identification. All they had to
listen to them on was an old Edison Victrola that only
played at 78 R.P.M., but the boys all agreed it was
some mighty fine country music. So, in memory of the
stranger who had perished the boys set about
learning these songs . . . "

The records in the car, of course, were by the band AC/DC. And the boys recorded an album
of the songs in their own mountain / bluegrass style - with fiddle, mandolin, banjo and such.
We'll let singer & fiddle player Barley Scotch tell this part of the story from here:

B.S.: "Yeah . . . so when we was first listening to those records . . . I mean, it became
REVEALED to me - that Lost Highway of Brother Hank Williams and that Highway to Hell
them boys was singing about . . . well, I KNEW: they're the same damn road! So, we just set
about playing some of them songs, in with our regular ones, you know, at church socials and
such . . . and the next thing we knew, this fellow from Nashville had us down there making a
record. Before I knew it, I was talking on the radio every day and the record was in every
Wal-Mart in the country . . ."
