"Old Sport" by Albert Hash

The emblematic fiddler in a region known celebrated for them -- the Whitetop section of Grayson County, VA -- Hash combined the local fiddling style he learned from his family and neighbors with styles he heard on 78s during his childhood. As a teenager he became the first regular fiddling partner local recording star Henry Whitter had traveled with since the death of G.B. Grayson, one of Hash's heroes. He went on to learn the fine arts of fiddling and instrument-building; he developed distinctive, influential and highly personal approaches to them both. He was comfortable with Grayson County's traditional repertoire, bluegrass, country music and the dazzling fiddle styles that developed with the rise of radio and the recording industry. "Old Sport" is a tune Hash learned from a record by Texas fiddler Bill Northcutt. Hash's fiddling would go on to influence generations of fiddlers -- not least his brother-in-law/bandmate Thornton Spencer and Spencer's children, Kilby and Martha -- as would his skills as a luthier (he inspired neighbor Wayne Henderson to learn how to build guitars) and a teacher. Hash and his daughter-in-law, Emily Spencer, offered educational courses on traditional music that evolved into the area's renowned JAM (Junior Applachian Musicians) program.
