Merle Travis, Leadbelly & Tex Ritter recording?
« on: December 25, 2022, 05:12:00 AM »
When reading "AN INTERVIEW WITH MERLE TRAVIS
WITH MARK HUMPHREY JUNE 21, 1979" I found this:

 “Me and Leadbelly and
Tex Ritter once played for an affair,” he recalled. “They recorded us
as we performed, and then auctioned off our records for a benefit."

from "Rare Performances 1946-1981"

Does anyone know anything about that record?
