Ralph Blizzard was indeed a fine fiddler and wonderful person. His technique was unique among old time fiddlers. I brought him and his band to Arkansas on several occasions and he was well received here. His band consisted of Phil Jamison and other top notch old time musicians who were in the band because of their appreciation and admiration of Ralph. Though he was known for his fiddling, his singing also added immensely to his concerts.   He was truly one of the greats of old time music and he brought much pleasure to folks through his music. He left a significant and valuable legacy and will indeed be missed.
