Kentucky Mountain Barn Dance
In an old song folio, the foreword tells readers a bit of the spirit this
program that debuted over radio station WVLK in Lexington, KY on
September 10, 1949 was trying to convey to the audience.
...It has ever benn our uppermost ambition to make the
Barn Dance a home for everyone, with a spirit of brothershood for all, and where
the welcome mat is always on the door step and the latch string
always on the outside, a place where our many friends can come and mingle
in company with the entertainers so that both the audience and the entertainers
may work together and enjoy themselves to the fullest.
The last show appears to be Saturday, May 5, 1951 at the Woodland Auditorium.
No further promotional ads were seen in 1951 nor in 1952.
