Скачать или смотреть Possum Hunters - Old Joe

Noel "Monk" Scruggs fiddling "Old Joe" with the Possum Hunters, introduced by Carl Smith (who misidentifies the song as "Old Joe Clark") on the 9:30 Martha White portion of the Grand Ole Opry, January 10, 1953. The quality of the first part of this recording is very rough due to damage of the original acetate disc; however, this is the only known recording of Scruggs fiddling "Old Joe" - a classic tune of middle Tennessee old-time music. Thanks to Daniel Rothwell, whose transcript of the dance call was invaluable in reconstructing the damaged part of this performance. The Possum Hunters heard on this recording are:
Staley Walton and Alonzo Apple: guitars
Oscar Albright: bass
Noel "Monk" Scruggs: fiddle
Martin Presley: banjo
