The 1956 debut album by The Kossoy Sisters (identical twins Irene and Ellen) is a foundational album in the genre's canon. Recorded in 1956 by famed Folkways engineer Mel Kaiser for the Tradition label run by Paddy Clancy of Clancy Brothers fame, Bowling Green and Other Folk Songs from the Southern Mountains set the close harmony singing of the sisters to instrumental accompaniment by legendary folkie Erik Darling (Weavers, Rooftop Singers).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe effect was devastating and the album's legacy lasting; despite the Sisters splitting up to raise their own families, demand for their music remained constant through the decades, resulting in various reunions and additional recordings, culminating in the Coen Brothers prominently placing their recording of “I'll Fly Away” in the Grammy Award-winning soundtrack to O Brother, Where Art Thou? This is the first reissue of the record on LP, arriving on the 70th anniversary of its release, remastered for vinyl and pressed in pink to match the album cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA1.
