The Greenbriar Boys 3 albums were mid'60s to early '70s vintage. Bob Yellin played banjo (I think he's still active in a group called the bluegrass admirals) John Herald plyed guitar and did most of the lead vocals, Ralph Rinzler played mandolin early on, then went to the Smithsonian and passed away a few years back. Frank Wakefield took over mandolin duties when Ralph went to the Smithsonian, and I forget who played fiddle with them. This may be unrelated to the original thread, but they all seem to get like this. I didn't know Kathy Kallick recorded it, but I remember seeing her perform it at one of the children's concderts at one of the Santa Maria bluegrass festivals, probably spring of '96.
