The Atlanta Tape 1970

In Atlanta 1970, Mike Nicolay, Bob Isenhour, and a bunch of friends
put this recording together for me and sent it to Cam Ranh Bay Vietnam
while I was stationed there.

Here's the uncut recording.

Side 2
 

I'm pretty sure Mike is the MC and initially on banjo.

Names I heard mentioned:
Mike Nicolay on banjo & mandolin
Tom Glenn on guitar
Buddy Whitford on mandolin
Frank Wing on banjo
Ron Hancock on guitar

I heard where Bob came in late, but am not sure where he was playing banjo.

(The only photo I have of Mike)


Mike had been in a much rougher place in Vietnam than I was. He understood.

Bob was my bluegrass mentor when I was at Clemson University. [See Photos]

Sadly, both Mike and Bob passed away years ago.

The last time I saw Bob was in 1971 when he visited me in Pleasant Valley, NY.
We did a recording session in my apartment.
