Howdy Folks!
Recorded at the 33d-36th National Folk Festivals, Filene Center, Wolf Trap Farm Park, Vienna, Va., 1971-74.
"The first side of this album is devoted to the mainstream country music tradition...The second side is a sampling of some of the lesser-known types of traditional bands around the country, particularly dance bands."
Folks with better knowledge of the folk scene may be better acquainted with these artists than I am, though I do recognize Martin, Bogan & Armstrong (biography) from living in Knoxville, TN. This video may be from their performance at this festival:
This collection has lead me to search out further repetoire for the jaw harp. For example, The Austrian composer Johann Albrechtsberger - chiefly known today as a teacher of Beethoven - wrote four concerti (in F, Eb, E & D) for jaw harp between 1769 and 1771.
