Tut Taylor Archive Cassette #35 features part two of a "January 8, 1972" jam session at "Roy Acuff's" (in Tut's 

biography, "Flat Pickin' Dobro Man", he mentions that Roy Acuff owned a building next door to the Ryman Auditorium 

in Nashville, TN, where people used to gather to jam before and after the Grand Ole Opry performances; I suspect 

that this is where this jam took place).  Tut is heard on Dobro and mandolin, with Charlie Collins on fiddle, 

along with an unknown guitar player/vocalist (who is clearly smitten with the flatpicking style of Doc Watson).  

My guess is that more tunes from this jam can be found on archive Cassette #40.  However, the jam at Roy Acuff's 

on C40 is labeled as having been recorded on December 8, 1972, making it unclear whether these recordings are 

part of a whole, distinct from one another, or, if they did take place on the same day, occurred in early- or 

late-1972.

	The casssete is a Concertape Radio Shack brand cassette with a sticker that

says "Jan. 8, 1972 at Roy Acuff's" on it.  The cassette was played on a Nakamichi Deck 1

with azimuth adjusted.  The resulting analog signal was digitized 

by a Mytek Digital 8X96 analog to digital converter using Steinberg Nuendo as the 

recording software and saved as a 24 bit 48 kHz wave file.  



	Post processing and was done with Nuendo using the following Waves 

Plugins: Q10, X-Hum, LinEQ Lowband and L3.  The file was dithered down to a 

16 bit/44.1kHz wave file.
