Dale,You seem to be an expert on old-time fiddlers. I read on a record jacket once that there was a Mississippi fiddler named Willie Narmour who won a fiddle contest and got a recording contract as a result. When he was asked about other local talent in the area, he pointed to John Hurt and that is how Hurt got to do the 1928 sessions. The questiion, of course, is: Has the record Narmour made ever been recorded?
I ask this question here in case someone else knows the answer, or has comments.
Apropos of nothing. Dale sent me some sites for old time country music and included among them was Elderly's. I couldn't resist looking at their used instruments. The price of used Martin Guitars seems high. Has Martin stopped making them? (Or have I just lost contact with the market?)
