To get the entire movie, go to http://www.createspace.com/204609 Back in 1964. New York City filmmaker, David Hoffman was headed down with his new 16mm hand held camera (weight 49 lbs!) to spend weeks driving the backcountry around Madison County, North Carolina with the 82 year old founder of the pioneer Asheville Mountain Music and Dance Festival, Bascom Lamar Lunsford.
The resulting film, "Bluegrass Roots" lets you hear and experience the hard scrabbling, dirt road real people sounds that dominated the back country of the southern mountains 45 years ago. Most of the songs are classics, including Lunsford's own tune, "Mountain Dew."
