I do not know where his is buried. My grandfather, Howard Tipton (and Ruby's husband) is supposed to have played the guitar with him on a radio show in Norton VA - but I can find no information on this - what station, when, etc.<br /><br />I am trying to find out as much as I can on him and the "Magic City Trio" just for family tree research purposes.<br /><br />I have tried to download the music, but without success. It would be nice to put this together with the documents I am working on.<br /><br />Perhaps someone will see this and can provide additional information.<br /><br />I am happy to share what I have should anyone who cares to see it.<br /><br />Thank you<br /><br />Michael A Tipton<br />Charlotte NCMichael Tiptonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443445010226889923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-26168012157304163192009-09-26T21:18:35.538-07:002009-09-26T21:18:35.538-07:00Please help me- I would love to have the Magic Cit...Please help me- I would love to have the Magic City Trio LP -it seems to require a password.

The system asks me for a password when I try and unzip the files. Do you have any suggestions?
