The End Is Near
It is with great sadness that I have to announce the end of the Rocking-Byrd and Rocking--Byrd blogs.
The ever-dropping amount of visitors, downloads and comments leave me no choice, as I just can't go on putting so much time and energy for just a handful of people. I feel sorry for the regulars, but so be it.
Two more concerts will be uploaded, on Mondays December 20 and 27, 2010.
No new post in 2011.

Kentucky Colonels - Ash Grove Mid-Sixties (Tut Taylor Reel Tapes Archives #29)
The Kentucky Colonels – Tut Taylor Reel Tapes Archives #29
Ash Grove, Santa Monica, CA (mid 60s)
Clarence White - guitar
Roland White - mandolin
Scotty Stoneman - fiddle
Billy Ray Lathum – banjo
Roger Bush - bass
Leroy Mack – dobro
With guests Tut Taylor and The Spencers
The Tut Taylor Archive Reel #29 features a Kentucky Colonels live performance that was probably recorded at the Ash Grove, Santa Monica, CA, circa mid-1960s. Tut's recording does a nice job of capturing Clarence White's fine backing guitar. A nice treat is to hear the masterful fiddling of "Eight Time National Champion Fiddler" Scotty Stoneman, who is announced as a guest at this show. Some dobro is heard in the background on tracks 9-10, and may be Tut. "The Spencers" (Dave and Lou), a popular California country act in the 1960s, sing two songs (tracks 12-13) backed by the Colonels. This recording is notable for featuring a number of tunes not found on other circulating Kentucky Colonels shows.
1. Wound Time Can't Erase (0:22)
2. Each Season Changes You (3:18)
3. From A Jack To A King (4:40)
4. Sometimes You Just Can't Win (2:23)
5. Six Days On The Road (2:50)
6. Orange Blossom Special (5:25)
7. Cumberland Gap (2:14)
8. Footprints In The Snow (3:10)
9. May You Never Be Alone Like Me (3:52) (with Tut Taylor)
10. Cry Cry Darling (3:22) (with Tut Taylor)
11. Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms (2:20)
