Here's a playlist with over two hours of Orville Burns fiddling with John Hartford on the banjo and Bobby Christman on guitar. The banjo overwhelms the audio at times, but it's still a great watch and listen. Orville plays some tunes here that likely aren't recorded anywhere else. You can tell these guys were really enjoying the opportunity to play together.
Orville Burns - fiddle
John Hartford - banjo
Bobby Christman - guitar
