Jack Tottle Rules.

[SMSimon]

Are any of these links still alive?
I still have my LP of Jack Tottle, Red White and Bluegrass, but I don't have a record player.
Would love to get a FLAC version.
Thanks

Dan,
Scroll partway down the Friends of Old Time Music site, and next to the Kentucky Ramblers' album you'll see "My Blog List". A terrific one there is "Bill's Blog" (http://marines12.blogspot.com/). "Allen's Archive" (http://allensarchiveofearlyoldcountr....blogspot.com/) is also great.

Also, is there some place to get the insert? I found my copy of Tottle's instruction book and my LP. But I can't find the booklet that was the insert. I vaguely remember learning a longer version of Grandfather's clock from that, which I'd love to brush up on.

Saw his band that night (I think it was Tasty Licks with Bela?), and he rocked it...

I was at that show with a very young and shy Bela.

I find my insert! If anyone wants it, please contact. me.

Jack was a force in that era - Tasty Licks, Back Road Mandolin. You couldn't find a stronger picker - melodic, deft, fast, cross-pick, tremble - he could do it all.

You can listen to Back Road Mandolin on YouTube:



His daughter Molly is also making quite a name for herself on guitar with many YT videos.

But Jim she spells her name " Tuttle" not "Tottle.

This is the Tuttle family band.....

Ah, my mistake. You are right. I did read her bio and thought until now that Jack Tottle was her father instead of Jack Tuttle. I suppose I am the only person in North America who made that mistake.

Then again, I suppose many people mistake me for Jim Garner.

[Charles E.]

Happy New Year Jim! Hope you are well.

[Jim Garber]

Happy New Year Jim! Hope you are well.

Yes, the very same to you! Maybe 2019 we will actually meet.

I still have my Backroads LP... but no longer have a record player. Alas, I can not find the TAB insert that came with the LP. Where can one find a copy?
THanks,

Concur with you Spruce. He's way underrated and has influenced countless young mandolin players with his instruction book. Crazy Creek is one good tune! The TAB for it was in the Backroads Mandolin LP. I learned Tennessee Blues from that LP. Never could figure out the start to Fisher's Hornpipe.
