Notes



The Bluegrass 45, from Kobe, Japan, are:

Tsuyoshi 'Josh' Otsuka - guitar, vocals

Akira Otsuka - mandolin, vocals

Toshio Watanabe - bass

Saburo 'Sab' Watanabe Inoue - banjo, vocals

Hsueh-Cheng 'Ryo' Liao - fiddle, vocals

Chien-Hua Lee - guitar, vocals



IInd Generation was Eddie Adcock, Wendy Thatcher, Tony Rice, Jimmy Gaudreau, and perhaps, Bob White



Sittin' On Top Of The World is cut on Side B of the cassette.  The full version starts out Side A.

I reversed the order of the tape sides to make this recording in chronological order.  The last four songs

by The Bluegrass Orchestra are from an unknown set, presumably from this festival. 



Historical Notes:

Anonymous Collection 1 Cassette Tape #90 features Carlton Haney's "Bluegrass Orchestra"-an end-of-festival 

bluegrass jam from Haney's Camp Springs Bluegrass Festival, Reidsville, NC-September 2, 1972.  Featured artists 

in the jam include Mac Wiseman, IInd Generation (with Eddie Adcock, Wendy Thatcher, & Jimmy Gaudreau), J.D. 

Crowe & The New South (with Tony Rice, Doyle Lawson, & Bill Emerson), Del McCoury & the Dixie Pals, John Duffey, 

Mike Auldridge, the New Grass Revival, among others.  Following the closing jam, Haney presents a $100 bill to 

the Japanese bluegrass band Bluegrass 45 (featuring Akira Otsuka on mandolin).  A shortened set by the IInd 

Generation (with Tony Rice in the band as well) rounds out the tape.  Classic.
