Index to In the Shadow of Clinch Mountain

In 2000, Bear Family records released In the Shadow of Clinch Mountain, a 12 volume CD compilation of all of the Original Carter Family's commercial recordings. Along with the CD's is an extensive hardcover book which includes all of the song lyrics as transcribed by Phil Wells. The lyrics are printed in the same order as the songs appear on the CDs. However, there is no index to the CDs or the song lyrics. Or, rather, was. This table gives the number of the CD on which each song appears and the page on which a song's lyrics are printed.

There is also a pdf version.
