Bluegrass picking session at Charles Kendrick's home

Date: 1985-03-02
Description: Three audio cassettes. Recording of a bluegrass picking session at Charles Kendrick's home. Musicians included: Frank Trivette Sr. (fiddle, banjo), Ebby Johns (fiddle), Henry Brown (guitar), Doug Trivette (guitar), Shorty McDaniels (guitar), Charles Kendricks (mandolin), and Frank Trivette Jr.(guitar). For images, see S 1577, v. 27, slides 1903-1937. In winter 1985, the Bureau joined with two folklorists to conduct a folk arts survey of the St. Johns River basin in northeastern Florida. The St. Johns River is the largest and most used river in Florida, supporting much river commerce as well as a modest amount of commercial fishing. Folklorists Mary Anne McDonald and Kathleen Figgen conducted the survey from January through March 1985 under the direction of Folklife Coordinator Blanton Owen and Bureau Chief Ormond Loomis. Documentation compiled in the survey was used to prepare and present the 'St. Johns River Basin Folklife Area' at the 1985 Florida Folk Festival.
