Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music audio recording of American old-time musician Hobart Smith performing Traditional music from Southern Appalachia
Per girellando "Hobart Smith (May 10, 1897—January 11, 1965) was an American old-time musician. Smith was famous for his virtuosistic performances on the banjo even if he also mastered other instruments as fiddle, guitar, piano, accordion, harmonica and organ. He appeared together with his sister, Texas Gladden, on a series of Library of Congress recordings made in 1940s and at various music festivals during the 1960s folk music revival. This song is the first track of the CD "Instrumental music of Southern Appalachians". The CD contains a series of field recordings made by the ethnomusicologist and Tradition label founder Diane Hamilton (the only child of the millionaire Harry Frank Guggenheim) during a trip to Virginia and North Carolina in the summer of 1956. Her works inspired the Library of Congress to make subsequent recordings of some of the artist that she gathered in this CD."
