Here are some more, maybe all, of the Library of Congress' recordings of the Ballard's Branch Bogtrotters. Recorded 1937 and 1941. I've included the cuts that were on the lp as well, because these seem to have a little less surface noise that the versions on the album.
Crockett Ward - fiddle, vox
Alex Dunford - fiddle, vox
Wade Ward - banjo
Fields Ward - guitar, vox
Doc Davis - autoharp
Whippoorwill
Jesse James
Cold Icy Floor
Make Me A Pallet on the Floor

ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI have to mention that there's quite a few more recordings. One is released on "Uncle Wade" Cluck Old Hen, and the other album called "Roscoe Holcomb and Wade Ward": Waterbound.
Also the rest is mentioned under "Wade Ward" here: http://www.loc.gov/folklife/guides/Banjo.html
Best Regards,
