Bill Hoke:
Foggy Mountain Top

 

Dave, Joe and Charlie met singer-guitarist Bill Hoke in the mid-1970s, soon after he finished a six-year stint in the Navy, and Bill quickly became a regular in their circle of friends. He was one of the founders of a great local band called The Kentucky Foothill Ramblers, but Bill also had time play in The Flood too in its first six or seven years. Bill moved away in the early '80s and we don't get to see him much any more, but recently on a drive home to Dayton, Ohio, he stopped to take in a Wednesday night jam session. Here Bill Hoke leads the band on a spirited version of a Carter Family song.
