  • I'm familiar with that radio show on WFMU. They play a lot of pretty nondescript stuff, then from nowhere at all they dig up a treasure like this one. And what a find it is.

  • That was Henry Whitter without G.B. Grayson. If I recall correctly, they didn't meet until 1925 , at the Mountain City, TN, fiddlers convention.
