[Notes]
AllMusic Review by Thom Owens: "Step by Step" Lesley Riddle Meets the Carter Family: Blues, Country and Sacred Songs contains several field recordings Mike Seeger made of guitarist/vocalist Lesley Riddle between 1965 and 1978. The music on the disc not only showcases Riddle's considerable talent, it also demonstrates that there wasn't much of a gap between blues, folk, country and mountain music.
