Ritchie, the great Appalachian folk singer and songwriter, is ailing.
As an advocate for the people and places of the eastern mountains, Ritchie has written ditties damning strip mining and other deplorable practices.
She also plays a mean dulcimer.
Ritchie's style of Appalachian music predates bluegrass and echoes its British roots.
Hit the post title or below to hear her sing one of her songs with Emmylou Harris.
