Old Time Jam: Alan Jabbour

March 1-7: You’ll tune in for the music and stay for the stories of Alan Jabbour, an enthnomusicologist and old time fiddler, who served as the director of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress from 1976-1979. Alan was a founding member of the Hollow Rock String Band and is credited for inspiring a whole new generation of old time musicians. Alan talks about music with Hubie King and shares some of the songs he learned from his mentor, Virginia fiddler Henry Reed. Pull up a chair and enjoy a very special edition of Old Time Jam, featuring songs like Over the Waterfall, Flying Cloud Cotillion, and Turkey in the Straw.
