Nice one, Jack! And the same day you posted it I discovered the Facebook group for folks who hung out at the new haven, connecticut, coffee house where I first heard it in 1965 or so!
Thumbpicks! Its great to see you Jack and I'll never forget playing with you and Billy Baker at Fiddle Tunes in Port Townsend. It was a real bluegrass picking session, standing in a circle with an 80 year old fiddler that made the hair on my neck stand up every time he kicked off a song.
@@jackhinshelwood1890 I'm the Monroe style mandolin player that loaned you my '51 D18 for the back porch jam with Billy, and I sang tenor. Dave Baker is my name and I play all the BG instruments and ran a traditional festival in Grass Valley from '92-2006 called Wolf Mountain, which is now my band name. I'm pretty starved for bluegrass here so it was a real treat when you two showed up. When Lightnin Wells comes for the Blues week we always sneak off for a bluegrass session.
Say, Mr. Hinshelwood...I know this is a huge ask, but...I can't find my old cassette with "The Allen Family Tragedy" on it. Would you be willing to do that one again? I've been talking to a lot of my friends about old Appalachian stories, and while I remember all the words, I suck at singing...
Olan Gardner told me about Wayne Henderson when I was 15... a few years later Jack Hinshelwood.... I've been playing guitar with finger picks ever since. Olan was an old family friend. We lived in Christiansburg till I was almost 8. Anyway I am 64 now and playing at Dollywood. This is precious to me
Beautiful interpretation! I discovered this song with the JSD Band version. (video below) How to get the lyrics (I'm French) Thank you ;-) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i1StI3-E3Dg.html
