I've loved this town ever since I came here to River City back forty-odd years ago. It is still the Violet Crown of the Hills, far as I'm concerned. But after all the changing years, shifting scenes, and moving musical grooves, I can't help but always come back to the best dance band I believe I ever enjoyed anywhere, led by a man with some kind of brain and a story to match. If you can manage ...

  • @brendandoyle815
    @brendandoyle815 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The tune is Melvin Wine's "Devil's Dream". I'm skeptical about that list of musicians, though, especially Joe Thompson. It sounds to me more like a group of younger, "revival" musicians (maybe at Galax), though it could include Harold Hausenfluck (and possibly Abe Horton?). I might be wrong about that, though. I'm guessing this track was on a tape (likely of festival recordings) which included those listed musicians on various tracks.

    • @jacegoodling7701
