Fairley Holden - Contract Records # 8151 - 1946
Side A - Keep Those Cold Icey Fingers Off Of Me
Side B - Sweetheart Mountain Rose (Holden Brothers)
Mr Holden does a pretty good job on this early hillbilly number, he has the right tone in his voice (not the crooner country sound) and delivers a real cool 1946 tune. Quality steel playing and steady rhythm guitar keeps this chugging along, then the fiddle and what you get is some sweet hillbilly music.
Fairley went onto record a whole bunch of great records over at King during the late 40's including this A side again in 1947 with Piano added to the ensemble. All his King output was in a real fast hillbilly style and was mighty mighty fine!
