Old Time Ensemble (Wed) – week 6
Ray Alden recorded and produced tons of great music over the last four decades. Perhaps his best known project was The Young Fogies. I first saw him at the Indiana Fiddlers Gathering in the early 80s with his reel-to-reel recorder. He coaxed some of the best jam sessions over to his card table set up right next to the outdoor electrical outlet. One of the last times I saw him was at Clifftop (the Appalachian String Band Festival) a few years ago. As always, he was recording. This time with a small hand-held digital recorder.
Ray worked closely with the Camp Creek Boys and Fred Cockerham, musicians representative of the highly influential Round Peak style from Virginia and North Carolina. One of his longest associations was with Taylor Kimble and several generations of the Kimble family. Here’s Taylor Kimble’s version of a classic tune from that district . . .
