Show Notes:
Bill Monroe - Mandolin, vocals
Edd Mayfield - Guitar, vocals
Bob Johnson - Banjo, vocals
Kenny Baker - Fiddle, vocals

One more show with Edd Mayfield singing and playing guitar, so that's worth the price of admission alone! On tracks 05 to 07, a guest singer whose name I can't seem to sort out makes an appearance and sings a couple of numbers with the band. This is most certainly not a complete show, as it starts with the hymn portion...that would mean that at least five or six songs are missing from it...yet this is the only known existing version of this show, so I'm pretty sure we're happy with what we got! Must have been a real windy day, as you can tell by the fidelity.
