Lonnie'S Breakdown!

0 - Default Title
Description
"Here was the best Missouri fiddler I ever heard. Not enough could be said about Lonnie and his fiddling, and all of it would be favourable. He had a long career and played (on the radio) in several states. . . I knew Bob Walters before I knew Lonnie;Bob very seldom mentioned any other fiddlers, favorably or unfavorably, but one day I turned our conversation towards Lonnie and Uncle Bob said, `Boy, he sure had some good tunes'. . . Lonnie knew an inordinate number of good tunes, could play them all well, and probably took more tunes to the cemetery than any other Missouri fiddler." --R.P. Christesen, The Old-Time Fiddler's Repertory, V. 2 (Undoubtedly the best single collection of American fiddle music yet compiled.) Fortunately, R.P.'s worries about Robertson's legacy were unfounded, for Lonnie left behind a large body of privately recorded work.We have assembled some of the best of it here, providing a representative portrait of one of America's finest folk violinists.
