Freight Train and Other North Carolina Folk Songs and Tunes - Elizabeth Cotten (Smithsonian Folkways, 1989)

Elizabeth Cotten taught her lefthanded self to play a righthanded guitar.  It’s called Cotten-pickin’.  Cotten could’ve been easily lost to time.  She was a maid in her 60s when her employer “discovered” her and recorded her performing original and traditional music, the end result of which is this album, first released in 1958.  Thankfully Cotten’s beautiful music will be with us always.
