[78-L] Jimmie Rodgers Museum

[Cary Ginell]

There is a complete Montana Slim/Wilf Carter discography that was privately published by Don Cleary. It's quite useful. Of course, Bear Family has put out the complete works of Carter in several volumes as well. I remember speaking to him when he was in his 90s and living in Florida. Very nice man.
