I vaguely remember..it was the 60’s..as mom tells it ..Earl was from Shelby and he and my great uncle Turk friends..Turk played a string bass and he would come down and pick with em..Mom says Turk recorded with Lester and Earl although I have never looked into it..Turk had twin Ivan..Ivan held Turk back..both became fine men later in life but back then that Ramsey gene that likes alcohol was showing so ever picking session turned into a fight between the 2....happens..so who knows what Turk and Ivan himself a fine picker could have been..DFOLDMAN wrote: ↑Sat Oct 22, 2022 9:19 pmMy dad used to play the Western NC high school auditorium circuit back in the early 1950s when he was in high school...we turned an old chicken brooder/sweet potato curing house at the farm into a place to play "hillbilly music", complete with stage, track lights, sound system...fun time...he had an early HD-28 from the late 1970s... I have it now.
