Notes
These recordings were made at Pittsboro, North Carolina on Friday September 15, 1972 and Saturday September 16, 1972."What you will hear on these two records is as accurate a document of a rural medicine show and its social function ever made, and it seems likely that they are of the last performances ever of a medicine show in the United States."
Monologues between songs:
- medicine show intro monologue
- snake oil pitch
- corn solvent & black salve pitch
- final sale pitch for all products
Released with a 28-page booklet, including the transcription of this last medicine show.
