I picked up a fun album today by Gus Ingo from 1979. Wayne Henderson plays lead guitar. Gus plays a bunch of bluegrass tunes on mandolin.
Apparently in his career he played with a band called the Mountain County Boys and later the McPeak Brothers, with whom he recorded an album called "Where it all began in Virginia." He shared the stage with Bill Monroe, and got to play Bill's mandolin, and also played with James Monroe.
Apparently the mandolin on the cover is by Fred Hensley of Galax, VA.
I've never heard him discussed here.
