"The Richest Family in Poor Valley" Performed by Don "PooBah" Mealer
"The Richest Family in Poor Valley", song #65 from the, "PoPaBiLLy MuZic Song Library", (c) 7/13/1999. The Original Carter Family, a humble family from Poor Valley, Virginia, who poured their heart and soul into their music. This was at the core of the "Big Bang" of Country Roots Music. The Carter Family represented a special, one-of-a-kind link to traditional roots music that drew from the established lifestyles in Appalachian “mountain music” when The Carter Family started recording in 1927. Their love for family and sharing their lives together in music is/was their wealth, because it was enough to satisfy, leaving nothing more to want. Thus, making them, "The Richest Family in Poor Valley". This music track was originally created as a demo. Philip Adams from Garland, Texas was originally inspired to write this song, due to his personal heart connection with his wife Rosey Carter and experiences in Poor Valley, VA. The co-writer providing vocals and music arrangement on this track is Don "PooBah" Mealer, of Nashville, TN. This recording of "The Richest Family in Poor Valley" is an acoustic set, possessing an Outlaw/Red Dirt Country Music sound/appeal. With its back porch feel, having a stripped-down, rough-cut nature. This style of music playing is most notably very desirable and popular in Oklahoma and Texas music scenes. For many, it is a preferred and very enjoyable listen. It is off-the-cuff, organic, with a soul-bearing quality that Don Mealer delivers with a palpable feel of the songwriters' heart's intentions. Most importantly though, it inadvertently puts the spotlight directly on their words, and the story behind their song. Which makes this style of presentation for this song the "chef's kiss"! This visual and musical creation pays tribute to the heart connections made by the First Family of Country Roots Music, and Philip's wife and "PooBah's" close friend, Rosey Carter.
