about

This session was recorded in 1983 at Big Lake State Park in Holt County, in northwest Missouri. The park is the site of the largest natural body of water in Missouri, an oxbow lake dated back to the early 1800s and mentioned by Lewis & Clark in their journals. The park is relatively small, but once featured a nice lodge and several rustic cabins. It's location was an ideal meet-up spot for fiddling and so the group listed below got together their several times in the 1980s to play tunes, eat bacon and drink a few beers. In fact, you can hear bacon sizzling in the background on several tracks!

Most of the fiddling on this recording is done by Dwight Lamb. As I recall, even though Cyril was there on this occasion he didn't do a lot of playing for one reason or another.

Recorded by Charlie Walden at Big Lake State Park in 1983. Present at the session were Cyril Stinnett, Dwight Lamb, Charlie Walden, Bill Shull & Dave Copeland. Digitized by Charlie Walden in 2010
