This is from John Dykes with Dykes Magic City Trio, a really great OT String Band from East Tenn. "Magic City" refers to Kingsport, TN. John Dykes, fiddle, Hubert Mahaffey, guitar (one of the best OT guitarists to record) and Myrtle Vermillion, autoharp. They recorded in NYC 1927 at the same session Dock Boggs was recorded. Dyke's arrangement of the three parts is random so I follow Jeff Goehring's pattern: ABBCB. Mr. Dykes played really fast!
