If so, why'd you marry that Julia woman?One thing that I've always wondered was were any videos made of black musical culture? 8mm film rather. Just last year I saw for the first time some newsreel footage of "Whistler's Jug Band" and several trad. musicians from about 1930. Quite a revelation. Even an uncredited twenty second clip of Smith Hammett (an extremely important banjo player to nurds like myself) and a little piece on Bascom Lunsford playing the fiddle with some mountain folk. It's one of Stefan Grossman's releases.
