content_summary: Tape 1 begins with short discussion of and demonstration of hollering for the Wiregrass Ways hollering radio program, at his home in Callahan, FL. Majority of tape is a recording of the Sacred harp hymn sing at Nathalene Primitive Baptist Church.

notes: Unlike Hoboken monthly sings, this is held the old style where there is one song leader, in this case Phillip Reeves, David Lee's first cousin on his mother's side. Phillip walks time throughout, as was typical of Hoboken before the recent changes.
