A Bluegrass Music Classic - On The PorchMay 22, 2012
To get the entire movie go to www.createspace.com It was back in 1964. New York City filmmaker, David Hoffman, age 22, was headed down with his new 16mm hand held camera (weight 49 lbs!) to spend three weeks driving the backcountry around Madison County, North Carolina, in the center of Appalachia, with the 82 year old founder of the pioneer Asheville Mountain Music and Dance Festival, Bascom Lamar Lunsford. The resulting film, "Bluegrass Roots" lets you hear and experience the hard scrabbling, dirt road real people sounds that dominated the back country of the southern mountains 40 years ago. It presents a string of the most extraordinary singers, players and dancers the BlueGrass Mountains had to offer. Many later became famous. Some were never heard from again. Most of the songs are classics, including Lunsford's own tune, "Mountain Dew." When this film aired on Public Television in 1965, TV Guide gave it a full-page positive review, because Americans had never seen a documentary on the roots of Bluegrass and Country music. Today, the dirt roads and the moonshine counties are largely modernized, and Bluegrass Roots, stands as a record of a uniquely talented group of people at a time just before the coming of television, changed them. www.thehoffmancollection.com

Bluegrass Music - Randall Franks, Otis Head, Raymond Fairchild - Sound of a Train - Cripple CreekMar 04, 2012
Pull up a chair, its time for The Otis Head Show. Ninety-year-old Otis Head plays harmonica, buck dances and receives an award for his work as a radio host. For 51 years, thousands of North Georgians have sought a weekly dose of down-home charm and bluegrass music from this beloved radio personality. Saturdays from 12:30 to 1:30 pm at 1530 on the AM dial, WTTI, Otis packs in loyal listeners who look forward to his folksy delivery and personal stories about growing up in Gobblers Knob and living in Plainview, both north of Dalton in Whitfield County. I was born up the creek from Praters Mill, he said. We were always farmers at that time. When Head began broadcasting his weekly bluegrass program on WBLJ in Dalton it was 1959. He gave listeners the latest sounds of bluegrass at a time when performers such as Elvis Presley were changing the face of Southern music, pushing bluegrass further down on the list of radio formats. When I was real young all I knew was a few people who picked banjo and maybe a few that played fiddle, he said. I liked it. Its in my bones I reckon. He was playing the stars Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, and Jim and Jesse. I had live bands at one time, he said. The Swaggerty Family and the Fort Mountain Boys were among them. Head originally began the program to promote his grocery store, the Plainview Superette. I started from nothing — just the little stock, he said. I had $444 worth. The store was originally just 17 feet by 22 feet. Business got so ...

MAN OF CONSTANT SORROW [ Tribute To The Awesome BLUE GRASS MUSIC ]May 23, 2012
Daniel Boone is talking about „MAN OF CONSTANT SORROW" "Man of Constant Sorrow" is a traditional American folk song first recorded by Dick Burnett, a partially blind fiddler from Kentucky. The song was originally recorded by Burnett as "Farewell Song" printed in a Richard Burnett songbook, c. 1913. An early version was recorded by Emry Arthur in 1928. There is some uncertainty whether Dick Burnett himself wrote the song. One claim is that it was sung by the Mackin clan in 1888 in Ireland. And that Cameron O'Mackin moved to Tenessee, brought the song with him, and performed the song. In an interview he gave toward the end of his life, Burnett himself indicated that he could not remember: Charles Wolfe: "What about this "Farewell Song" — 'I am a man of constant sorrow' — did you write it?" Richard Burnett: "No, I think I got the ballad from somebody — I dunno. It may be my song..." If Burnett wrote the song, the dating of the writing of the song, or perhaps the editing of certain lyrics by Burnett, can be made to about 1913. Since it is known that Burnett was born in 1883, married in 1905, and blinded in 1907, the dating of two of these texts can be made on the basis of internal evidence. The second stanza of "Farewell Song" mentions the singer has been blind six years, which would date it at 1913. According to the Country Music Annual, Burnett "probably tailored a pre-existing song to fit his blindness" and may have adapted a hymn. Charles Wolfe argues that "Burnett ...
