You can see video of Eldia Barbee playing on Youtube. Type in "Bob Austin PM Magazine" and look for the Mountain Music story.

@GusMcRaeRanger I was sent that link several months ago -it's on My Favorites on my channel.It also has Homer & Calvin Chastain, my students and a 33 year younger me! I was thrilled to see it. Eldia was a great friend, an incredible musician. The PM Magazine video is magic - it's the only video of Eldia that I know still exists. Thanks

Ron Williams (citicoron)

I really love to be able to find this music. I am from New York and play clawhammer banjo and a very rustic fiddle. This only helps can't find this at a Jam in New York. Really helps to be 16 and able to listen very closly to the music helping me become better.
