Camp Springs Bluegrass Festival, September 1971, Part Two

Here is part two of the seven part Camp Springs Bluegrass Festival.  This part has three acts, including Bluegrass 45, a bluegrass band from Kobe Japan, that I found very interesting.  They play traditional bluegrass and then play traditional Japanese songs in a bluegrass style.  Againg pretty good sound quality.

  1. Howdy AZ. Wonderful pictures, descriptions and accounts of your cavern tour; what a beautiful place. And it's obviously a good thing that you have such a dedicated - and cute - guard dog, too. Can't wait to listen to your second post from the Reidsville Bluegrass Festival, too. Such riches. Hope your week is terrific.

  2. Thank you for this post. I just watched a film called Country Soul Bluegrass and they were featured. I was doing some research on the band and stumbled upon your site, thank you!
