The Possum Outfit went all the way to Paducah, KY to find the remains of Rocky Hill Plantation, the sight of a ghastly murder during the New Madrid Earthquake of 1811-1812. Maurice tells of the murder, committed by the nephews of Thomas Jefferson, the earthquake, the Lewis and Clark Expedition, young Abraham Lincoln and John James Audubon and the fate of the now thought to be extinct ivory-billed woodpecker, also known as The Lord God Bird due to its striking appearances. We use a recording of the ivory-billed woodpecker with permission granted by the Macaulay Library at the Cornel Lab of Ornithology.
Maurice weaves together the work of Robert Penn Warren and diary entries by Audubon with the original works Time Is The Hum Of Gods Dream, Another River Still, and sings Banjo Pickin' Girl to help make sense of this age-old, tangled tale.
We wrap up the season with a Manning original tune, Gloryland. Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill graciously allowed us to bring a chorus of friends and family to their Meeting House to help bring It all home.
We want to thank you for listening and reading along and hope you will see fit to share our podcast with anyone you think might enjoy it, and some who you think wouldn't!
Until next season - Keep It In Your Pouch!
