"Old Joe Clark" Fiddlin' Powers & Family

Post by Uncle Vanya »

Another early Piedmont fiddle document taken from a clean Blue Amberol cylinder.

Again, I used a Diamond B reproducer that was tuned to emphasize the upper register, this makes the rather muffled fiddle lead clearer, but does tend to overemphasize the surface noise of the cylinder, which is actually rather mild.
