52nd String Band at Shiloh

[JD Mayo]

These guys are pretty mainstream but still good to listen to. Didn't know they are still around. Video from 2019

Thanks for posting. I have not seen nor heard the band in a long time. I thought they lost one of their members. Lee Millar is their leader (on guitar) and an avid re-enactor and historian. I went along with him on a private tour of Shiloh. I was surprised when he drove over to store at the intersection of Hiway 22 and 142 and got out a musket for the guests to fire (blanks). At that position we were standing at the south end of Farley Field (I think it is) but off of NPS property.

Yes one of their leaders did pass. I think it was Greg? I saw some post on there other songs on youtube I think it was him. I never met them but they had some interesting tunes for sure.
