Carter Family, The - My Old Cottage Home Lyrics
I am thinking tonight of an old cottage home
That stands on the brow of the hill
Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
But now all is quiet and still
That stands on the brow of the hill
Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
But now all is quiet and still
Many years have gone by since in prayers there I knelt
With dear ones around the old hearth
But my mother's sweet prayer in my heart still are felt
I'll treasure them up while on earth
Oh, my old cottage home, my old cottage home
Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
But now all is quiet and still
One by one they have gone from the old cottage home
On earth we shall see them no more
But we'll meet them again on that beautiful shore
Where parting will come nevermore
Oh, my old cottage home, my old cottage home
That stands on the brow of the hill
Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
But now all is quiet and still

Great Maybelle rhythm guitar playing here.
Great family and songs
I love the Carter Family's singing
Heard A.P. Carter sing solo this time.
A.P. is the man
これこそカントリーミュージックであり、プレジデントと呼ばれる理由の一つです！
I just love the way Sara holds out The _Hill_ ....." with her vocals. It's little things like that that spell Genius!
Yes...great treatment of the harmony by Sara, and how unusual to hear AP sing solo. Combined with Maybelle's perfect finger picking, and this is an awesome performance by all three of the Carters.
And here I thought it was little things like vowels that spelled Genius

Never heard A.P. sing solo before! He sounds so wonderful!
It was often so hard to hear AP on the old records that it's great to hear this solo. He really nailed it! Maybelle's finger picking is great too.
Piękne.

この曲は自分の初ブルーグラスだから思いであります。
wonderful music love the Carter family
First time ever I saw AP playing a guitar. Why did he not pose more with the guitar and play more when he was with the trio?
They were the equivalent probably to Peter Paul and Mary in their time frame.
A.P. learned to play guitar in his later years. He learned it from his good friend Lesley Riddle.
Actually there is no one in recent music the equivalent of the original Carter Family. The Carters were pioneers and one of the absolute essential, roots of American music recording. Country, Bluegrass, Rock, R&B, Pop, etc. did not even exist until 10 years or more after the Carter Family ceased recording, and "Folk" music was just beginning to be called by that name. The Carter Family influence is felt through all American Music, from Gospel to Rock and beyond. Most of Woody Guthrie's influence came from the Carters, as did Bob Dylan's, Johnny Cash's and Elvis Presley's. All American musicians stand in the shadow of the Carter Family's profound influence stretching across time and musical genres. When Folk Music became popular again in the late 1950's, Carter Family recordings from 1927-1943 were a major reference, and groups like Peter, Paul & Mary, were direct descendants of the Carter Family. The original Carter Family sound and style is so unique and distinctive, that the trio immediately stands out among all groups, past and present. The Carter's also have such a broad musical range that they are almost impossible to classify. I think the unique, distinctive style, and broad musical range is why the Carter Family has had such an immense and continuing influence across all American musical genres.
These pictures are taken by Eric Schaal, a LIFE Magazine photographer for an article that was to run in LIFE in December , 1941. The article never ran because of Pearl Harbor. A.P. is simply posing for the picture using Maybelle's Gibson L-5 guitar that she used throughout her career. He's probably not actually playing it. The shoulder strap is just hanging loosely on his lap.
AP was a very handsome man. They were the Peter Paul and Mary of that era.
Die Carters sind Extraklasse Danke !!1
Absolutely gorgeous, flawless instrumentals in this. A.P.Carter's voice is perfect for this song and the deep meaning. At an age where I've sadly watched family members depart "one by one" from this life, "My Old Cottage Home" touches deeply. Yet with the sadness it brings, the song also comforts and reassures. The original Carter Family never ceases to amaze. Songs of such depth and beauty can be listened to over and over and never wear thin.

This is beautiful.nuff said.
I love, I love, I love
Thanks so much to share
I donno about that..seems to me A P Carter was able to carry a tune..but it was usually Maybelle and Sara that did the singing. Too bad he died in relative obscurity.
I'm just discovering this great pioneer country group..the 1st generation Carters.
Great stuff. Thanks.

The Carters were the masters of beautiful music. They needed no trickery or "production" to make their music so full of feeling and so moving.
There's something about their music that makes you feel warm. I love old-timey music!
