Notes:

Tape BROKE off of leader at the end of side A. I took it apart and repaired it to get a good play of side B and succeeded.

About 10 minutes into side B the set ends and the MC says "That's JD Crowe and his New South" Next set on side B includes

Doyle Lawson and Bill Emerson in the Country Gentlemen.



The last song on Side A is the same as the first song on Side B. However, the version on Side A is warbly and the last 2

minutes are cut off. I chose not to include it. This proves this is a copy and not a master tape of at least the

JD Crowe set.



Anonymous Collection 1 Cassette Tape #75 features sets, or partial sets, from the Seldom Scene, J.D. Crowe & The New South, and the Country Gentlemen at

Jim Clark's Culpeper Bluegrass Folk Festival, Culpeper, VA-July 8, 1972.

Crowe's band features Tony Rice (guitar), Larry Rice (mandolin), and probably

Bobby Slone (bass), along with an unknown drummer. The Country Gentlemen

at this time featured Charlie Waller (guitar), Doyle Lawson (mandolin),

Bill Emerson (banjo), and Bill Yates (bass); sitting in the Gents for this set are John Duffey and Mike Auldridge from the Seldom Scene. Check out the twin

mandolins on "Under the Double Eagle". Pictures from this festival can be found

in the wonderful book, "Bluegrass Odyssey: A Documentary in Pictures and

Words 1966-1986" by Carl Fleischhauer & Neil V. Rosenberg.
