@oldhairyguy Man, that's cool! Lee's how old now? I've wanted to meet him, I've learned a lot of of tunes from his playing, and I've wanted to ask him about working in the mines. Also, Morgan, many people said he couldn't sing, but I learned one tune from him, London City Where I Did Dwell, and he also worked in the caol mines of Eastern KY, and I guess he had to quit school early to help his Dad in the depression years.

Just discovered this man on the Rhythm of My Soul documentary - awesome!
I agree about it being the best shady grove I've ever heard, and I've heard lots of people do it. Is he still alive?

Lee is very much alive, and participates in local bands, festivals, and hosts field trips sponsored by the Cowan Creek Music School in Whitesburg, KY.
