He sang lead on Wheels, Hickory Wind and She Once Lived Here. The album also includes a Ketch fiddle solo (She's Still The Queen) and harmonies by Ketch and Critter, as well as Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. |

Of The Row - Adrienne Young To get the full O.C.M.S. experience, skip the version of this album that is currently in stores and try to find a used copy of the 2003 independent release. I got mine for $6 at a record store in Berkeley. The whole band played on Groundhog, Cluck Old Hen, Lonesome Road Blues and Spotted Pony. These recordings are very distinctively O.C.M.S., and Willie and Ketch's voices come through beautifully when they sing with Adrienne. Ketch also contributed fiddle, banjo and harmonies to several other tracks, notably Satan Yer Kingdom Must Come Down, which is basically a Ketch and Adrienne duet. There are a few pictures of the Crows working on this album on Adrienne Young's website, here, here, here, here and here. |
