Subject: USA - National Barn Dance (1940s)
Likely the earliest 'folk' music and song programmes available on the web. Seem to have been recorded from air or disk. Of the hundreds of programmes a few have survived for listening to and downlading from Archive.org They exude enthusiasm and musicianship in the war-time era of WW2. Recorded at the "Hay Loft" in Winsconsin on the shores of Lake Michigan.
