Tater Tate, rest his soul--ranks with the finest fiddlers in all our history. Great drive, tone,feeling, and interpretation! This the way thye good old instrumentals should be played.
Today is Tater Tate's birthday. He was born Feb 4, 1931 in Yuma, Scott Co, VA just north of Kingsport TN. I got to know and work with him on the faculty of the Bluegrass, Old Time and Country Music Program at East Tennessee State University. He was not only a great fiddler but a wonderful, down-to-earth person. We all loved him'
