FHO member Mitch Reed discussed how Creole and Cajun music finds its roots in North Africa. He begins with a tune from Mali, then plays related tunes from Louisiana. Fascinating stuff!

John Hartford’s Mammoth Collection of Fiddle Tunes provides a sizable anthology containing 176 of his original compositions. Most of these tunes are previously unpublished and unrecorded, taken from Hartford’s personal music journals. The book includes 60+ of John’s personal drawings—ranging in theme from steamboats and the river, to fellow musicians, home and everyday life—as well as several never before seen photographs.
Best known for writing the Glen Campbell classic “Gentle on My Mind,” and launching Newgrass music with his landmark album Aereo-Plain, Hartford was a prolific songwriter and composer. A central figure in the Nashville acoustic community, he championed old-time music with an emphasis on the fiddle.
