Dean Gitter - Ghost Ballads [Orange]

Each Halloween, Real Gone Music embraces the season by exploring varied cultural expressions of the holiday, continuing a timeless tradition. This 1957 Riverside release transports you to Olde England with 12 traditional ballads focused on the supernatural, many sourced from Francis James Child’s renowned compilation, The English and Scottish Popular Ballads. Performed by folklorist and singer Dean Gitter, these songs offer a unique perspective—rather than haunting to frighten, these spirits return to comfort their loved ones. Accompanied by iconic Charles Addams artwork, the album is pressed on a clear vinyl with orange pumpkin swirls, limited to 900 copies, and includes the original liner notes, making for a truly evocative Halloween experience.
