Об исполнителе (группе)
The Williamson Brothers and Curry were Ervin Williamson playing guitar, his brother Arnold playing fiddle, Arnold Curry playing the ukulele, and a Mr. Kirk who occasionally performed with them. Apart from their 1927 recording session, the band was active in playing at dances and for audiences in the coalfields, traveling at least as far afield as Bluefield in Mercer County. They also knew and played with many other well-known Logan County musicians, such as Dick Justice and Aunt Jennie Wilson. William Ervin Williamson was born in Wayne County in 1900 and his brother Arnold was born there in 1904. Their father Charles Williamson and grandfather Moses “Preacher Mose” Williamson spent much of their lives as farmers in the Grant district of Wayne County, though occasionally turning up at Harts Creek in Logan County. But sometime between 1917 and 1920 Charles moved his family to the Mud Fork coal camp of Shamrock in Logan County, where for many years he and his sons worked in the coal mines there. Ervin died in 1972 at the age of seventy-two. Arnold Williamson died in 1998 at Mount Gay and was buried in the Highland Memory Gardens Cemetery in Chapmanville. Arnold Curry was born in 1906 in the Logan Magisterial District, near Mud Fork. In 1910 his father was a farmer there but by 1920 Mr. Curry and his father and older brother were working with him in the mines; in 1930 he was still a miner at Mud Fork. In 1935 he passed away and was buried in the Baisden Cemetery in Logan County. Dick Justice
The music of Dick Justice is known to us because in Chicago on 20 and 21 May 1929 he recorded eight songs for Brunswick Records. Of these six were released: Old Black Dog, Little Lulie, Brown Skin Blues, Cocaine, Henry Lee, and One Cold December Day. With Kanawha County fiddler Reese Jarvis he recorded four more on 20 May and these were issued under the name Jarvis Justice: Guian Valley Waltz, Poor Girl’s Waltz, Poca River Blues, and Muskrat Rag, all mainly instrumental dance tunes with some vocal interjections. In later interviews, Jarvis said that the two of them had never played together before arriving at the Brunswick studio. But in any case they seem to have gotten into a groove together as they played those four tunes in Chicago. Frank Hutchison
Frank Hutchison, described in Okeh Records promotional materials as “The Pride of West Virginia,” is thought to be the first non-African American musician to record in the country blues idiom. He was born in Raleigh County in 1897, but within two years his family moved to Logan County. He was exposed to Appalachian music at an early age because his grandfather, Eldredge Hutchison, was a fiddle and banjo player who played regularly in Logan both before and after the family moved there. Eldredge went to work in the mines after the move from Raleigh County, and he died a coal miner’s death in a slate-fall in 1903. The loss of his grandfather’s music may have opened Frank to new sounds. When the railroad first came into Logan County in 1904, he was exposed to African American blues and pre-blues by Henry Vaughn, a black railroad worker who also played guitar. Later on, when Frank was working as a miner in the Fort Branch and Ethel coal camps along Dingess Run, he regularly visited with an older black musician named Bill Hunt who lived in the hills above the coal camps and played blues music at the company store on paydays. Sherman Lawson, the fiddler with whom Frank recorded several tunes, reported to folklorist and musician Mike Seeger that Frank spent a great deal of time with Hunt and learned many of his songs from him. Frank Hutchison was acquainted with many other Logan County musicians, including the Williamson Brothers and Curry, Dick Justice, and Aunt Jenny Wilson. In 1984 Aunt Jenny told an interviewer about how Hutchison and Justice would go to local dances and “play half the night,” and about how Frank sang the old Scottish and English ballads like Barbara Allen, although he never recorded any of them. Between 1926 and 1929 Hutchison recorded more than 30 sides in New York and St. Louis for the Okeh label. The material was an eclectic repertoire of blues, pre-blues and blues ballads; ragtime tunes; songs derived in part from the British ballad tradition; Appalachian fiddle tunes; and songs of his own composition including one called The Miner’s Blues. He accompanied himself on guitar on most of them, on harmonica on a few of them, and fellow Logan Countian Sherman Lawson accompanied him on fiddle on three issued and three unissued sides. After these records were made, he frequently performed on stage in Logan and in many of the surrounding coal camps.
Fronk Hutchison
In 1929, Hutchison recorded with artists including Emmett Miller, Fiddlin' John Carson, and Moonshine Kate for a three-disc album of music and comedy titled “The Okeh Medicine Show.” The records were meant to encourage sales of the performers’ 78 rpm records on which listeners could hear the full versions of the songs they experienced on “The Okeh Medicine Show.”
