Story has it that, in 1927, The John R. Dykes String Band (later billed as Dyke’s Magic City Trio) traveled from home in Kingsport, Tennessee all the way to New York to record. Free A Little Bird was part of that session. And on that same trip, one of the trio’s members, George “Hub” Mahaffey also made some recordings with another musician - Doc Boggs!
