John Cohen, founding member of the ‘50s folk troupe the New Lost City Ramblers, started making films in order to bring together the two disciplines he was heavily active in: music and photography. The End of an Old Song brings us to North Carolina, and demonstrates the power of old English ballads sung with gusto while soused in a saloon.

Cast: Dillard Chandler, Lloyd Chandler, Ernest Franklin, George Landers, Dellie Chandler Norton, Berzilla Chandler Wallin
