martha white

I like the version they did at the classic Carnegie Hall concert in 1963 when some fans in the audience kept yelling out "Martha White!" and Flatt said "I didn't know you people up North had heard that one" and then the band did a great rendition of it.

Martha White still makes the best corn meal mix. So easy to make great cornbread with it. Every time I make some I think about Lester and Earl. The greatest association of a musical group with a product ever! And a great theme!

I well remember my first actual experience with Martha White. Had been a Flatt & Scruggs fan for years so knew about the flour, but one night I was driving off the interstate to meet friends for dinner in a town in Tennessee - maybe Carthage or "Cathrage" as it is pronounced there - and there, lo and behold, was a huge Martha White on a flour mill. What a kick! There never was and never will be again anybody quite Flatt & Scruggs and their aggregation.

Thanks for this. Nobody does this like Flatt and Scruggs!

do you know what year this was? I have an old flour bag or dish towel with Flatt and Scruggs and the lyrics on it, and was just wanting to get a date on it. Thanks

This video was made with a digital audio recording I got off the internet seven or eight years ago. I don't know how old it is. The images were also obtained from various internet sites. I just stuck them together to make this video.

There is older version of this song I actually like better. I wish I had it.
