No need to do that much, though I appreciate the offer. (I don't do music, either) I DO know it was recorded by Kenny Hall on his Philo album from 1974. He probably told a little bit about it in his notes. Now if I can just find that album . . .
I just checked at the Folk Index, and found that Pop Wagner and Bob Bovee also recorded it on their Train on the Island album. I talked briefly with Pop when he played the Ozark Folk Center last year. If I could have had it in mind, I would have asked him.
I'll let you know if I turn up anything else.
