I’m so pleased that Al Smitley agreed to allow his collection of interviews and tune notations from Saline, MI area fiddlers to be presented on Michiganfiddle.com

This book is a treasure of fiddle lore from the area and includes interviews with Ray Shepherd, Gertrude Ferrington, Everett Eggert, Luther Schaible, Burton Murray, Helen Gross, Clare Stevens, and Alma Wahl.

Thanks Al! We’re in your debt for this one.
