| Tom T. and Dixie Hall |
The impact Miss Dixie and her famous spouse had on bluegrass music in the past couple of decades was profound. There are likely more songs recorded in the genre penned by the songwriting team of Tom T and Dixie than any other writing entity. They supported new or struggling bluegrass musicians by providing songs and sometimes jobs and sustenance to get them over a hump. Any monetary remuneration for their efforts was donated to the Bluegrass Trust Fund managed by IBMA.
We barely scratched the surface of Miss Dixie's songs recorded by a wide variety of musicians in the first hour, and we find ourselves playing her songs frequently on the show without even trying.
A good article about Miss Dixie from Bluegrass Unlimited can be read here.
Godspeed, Miss Dixie.
The Heritage Corner brought forth music from Buzz Busby, The Wilson Brothers, The Johnson Mountain Boys, Bill Clifton, The Stanley Brothers, Carl Story, and Larry Richardson.
Join Amy next week when she will make the banjos and fiddles ring at the Bluegrass Cafe.
