Be Kind To a Man When He's Down

VINYL FORMAT. On yellow vinyl! Drawing from the vast spectrum of traditional American country and blues music from the 1920s and early 30s, Eden & Johns East River String Band (Eden Brower and John Heneghan) create some of the most authentic sounding renditions of these songs today. Their fourth release, Be Kind To A Man When He's Down, contains songs from Frank Stokes, Pink Anderson, Big Chief Henry's String Band and many more. It features special guests Robert Crumb (underground comic legend, Cheap Suit Serenaders) on mandolin, Dom Flemons (Carolina Chocolate Drops) on guitar and old-time music legend Pat Conte (Canebreak Rattlers, Otis Brothers) on fiddle, banjo, guitar, harmonica and vocals. It features an amazing cover by Crumb as did their last two records, Drunken Barrel House Blues and Some Cold Rainy Day.
