Lost tape of Frazier Moss from the WCPT-TV Saturday Night Jamboree

Fiddlin' Frazier Moss of Cookeville Tennessee was a national treasure and a true artist of old time fiddle music.  Here is a brief bit of one of his appearances on the WCPT-TV Saturday Night Jamboree.  I was the host of the show from 1979 through about 1981 or so and the show was originally broadcast live from the Main Street studio location and by the time this video was made the studio had moved out to Genesis Road and the building where Stonehaus Winery is now located.

Special Thanks to the Tennessee Archive of Moving Image and Sound (TAMIS) for rescuing this old 3/4 inch video tape for posterity. 

Info on Frazier Moss from David Holt's website.



First song is Take Me Back to Tulsa and the 2nd is Down Yonder

Unknown band performing on the Saturday Night Jamboree.
(Let us know if you know who any of these folks are.)
