Notes: 

Tut Taylor Cassette #21 Side A features what appears to be an early 

Aereo-Plain Band rehearsal circa early-1970s with John Hartford, 

Tut Taylor, Vassar Clements, & Norman Blake. They perform a number 

of tunes, none of which appeared on Hartford's "Aereo-Plain" LP. 

Side B of the cassette features a Norman Blake and Tut Taylor 

picking session circa early-1970s; I suspect this took place at 

the Old Time Pickin' Parlor, but this is only a guess. Many of 

the tunes featured were released on Tut's 1971 "Friar Tut" LP 

and Norman's 1971 "Home in Sulphur Springs" LP. Norman performs 

"Cattle in the Cane" with "Down Home Summertime Blues" lyrics!!
