rec. November 3, 1960, March 26, 1961, April 5, 1961, April 27, 1961 & May 12, 1961 in Baton Rouge, LA by Harry Oster; Herman E. Johnson, voc, g

Am I correct that these come from the songs transcribed in Oster's "Living Country Blues?" I'm happy to be wrong, and that there might be actual tape of these somewhere that some little birdie might have hipped you to....  wouldn't THAT be nice?
