- Summary:
- "For sixty years, Renfro Valley has highlighted some of the biggest and most influential names in country and folk music. What began in the 1930s as a combination radio broadcast and stage performance, has grown into an array of shows and headliner concerts featuring old-time country music, country gospel, modern country, bluegrass, and comedy acts."--BOOK JACKET. "Pete Stamper, a forty-seven-year veteran of Renfro Valley, traces the show's history from its early radio days in Cincinnati and Chicago, through the glory years in the 1940s, the lean times in the 1960s when rock and roll seemed to take over the music scene, to its renewed popularity in the 1990s."--BOOK JACKET.
