If you're interested in addition material, (and if you haven't seen it already and like to know a little bit more about Elizabeth Cotten) you can watch her together with Pete Seeger on his Rainbow Quest TV show. It goes a little bit into her story. She recalls how she got started, she would play her brothers banjo while he was at work. She also goes into how she met up with the Seegers. She is pictured with a Martin guitar both on the album cover, and is seen playing a Martin on the TV show. As Pete notices, she is left-handed and plays a right-handed guitar, but upside down. Which makes her style of playing pretty much unique.
