I.D. Stamper interview

Better save this --

Googling around with different keywords on the Digital Library of Appalachia website I came up with this directory of I.D. Stamper's interview with a group of high school kids from Atlanta. Playing and talking about Uncle Ed Thomas, tunings, etc. Several hammered dulcimer tracks but mostly his unique style of playing the dulcimers he adapted from Thomas'. I want to save it because I don't know if I can duplicate the search.

One sound bite that didn't get into the search above has an all-too-brief sound bite about how Stamper got his sound and styled his dulcimers.
