I have the LP at home. If no one else responds, I'll post it later.
Did some poking around, came up with this cool site

"Dorsey and me learned to play mandolin when we were 16 years old. He is the best mandolin player I ever heard. Dorsey, Jesse McReynolds and Bill Monroe are the only mandolin players I listen to."
- (guess who)
Wonderful!! Thanks!
I would assume that Wake Frankfield said that.....
No, that's right...
Actually in that pic its Cookie Inman on bass..I think Murhpy and Cookie shared the bass duties on that Lp.
A buddy of mine has some rare video of Dorsey and myself playing together. I say rare because Dorsey seldomed ventured far from the house. The same buddy would take me to Dorseys a couple times a month to play. Ah..the good ol days.
Well, if anyone would know, it'd be you, Scotti! (and David).
I haven't seen too many photos of Dorsey, in that one above, he looks like a man(dolin) on a mission!
I also think the banjo player in the pic is Sherril Jennings..not Bob Leach...Bob wasnt that tall if memory serves me right.
Did Brian Aldridge's dad circulate in those circles also? The Dayton corridor sure was home to a ton of great pickers in the 50's and 60's. I was lucky to catch some of the spill over that came to Bean Blossom.
Also I can remember seeing David with Larry Sparks in the early 80's and marveling how he could pick Katy Hill so fast and switch back and forth from the fiddle to mandolin and back and also wondered about that "funny" Gibson F5 he played.....years later I got chances to play that instrument. Very interesting.....Maybe Gibson will come out with an F5M model???????
Oh and by the way very keeping in character Alan......
Now where was my automotive paint and that oven..........got some refinishing to do.....
That's it......David can come up with a Wake Frankfield model .......truly truly distressed and with a glossy over coat to boot....
That would be Howard Aldridge..yes he did. Fine..fine banjo player. The Dayton area was a hot bed of music for as along as I can remember and many yrs before that. You had people moving there from the south to work for the big auto makers and they brought their music with them.
