Cold Frosty Morning
Melvin Wine

Melvin Wine has been playing the traditional fiddle tunes of Braxton County, W.Va., for more than 80 years, starting in 1921 when he was 12. His teacher was his father, Robert, who leanred from his father, Nels, and grandfather, Smithy. Nels never played fiddled, but sang the dance tunes learned from Smithy's playing.

This album was first released in 1976 and features its original liner notes and photos as well as an update on the Wine family.

Heard accompanying Melvin on this recording are his sons Grafton on banjo and Denzil on guitar.
