Dicho, you asked for the date of the H.M. Barnes' Blue Ridge Ramblers recording. It was recorded in New York City on 28 January 1929 when the band cut 9 sides. Its only other recording session was the following day when it cut a further 5 sides. H.M. 'Hank' Barnes led the string band that toured the vaudeville circuit. Barnes was not himself a musician, but gave his name to the group and booked them.--Stewie.
