This album was recorded at the Sound Shop in Nashville, Tennessee. Claude Hill was the engineer and Mike Melford the producer. The entire album is dedicated to the memory of a dear friend -- Bob Burtnett of Chillicothe, Illinois and passed away November 28th, 1975 and will be missed by all his old friends up and down the Mississippi, Ohio and Illinois rivers. A move is underway right now to name a navigation light for him on the Illinois River. The watercolor of the Pittsburgh and Cincinnati Packet Virginia was done by Willy Mathews. Thanks to Benny Martin for allowing me to breathe on his name in 'Tater Tate and Allen Mundy' and apologize to everyone I had to leave out. There were no overdubs or electronic effects used. The feet were picked up through a piano pickup on a piece of particleboard. All pickups and pre-amps were Barcus-Berry, the banjo was new GTR Hearts & Flowers model tuned low, the guitar was a Noble and the fiddle didn't have any kind of label in it at all.' -- John Hartford
