Groupe
Bluegrass US originaire de Bogue Chitto (Mississippi), composé de Ralph Hodges ,
Felix Hodges, James Hodges et John White.
Ralph
Hodges (guitar, Vocals), Felix Hodges (violin), James Hodges (rhythm guitar),
and John White (bass, Vocals) hailed from Bogue Chitto, MS. A bluegrass quartet
for most of its existence, the group made a convincing low-key foray into
rockabilly music in the fall of 1956 with "I'm Gonna Rock Some Too," which
included solos by both guitar players. The quartet saw its records issued on the
Mississippi label and on Trumpet, Decca, and Whispering Pines, as well a
complete LP on Arhoolie. Ralph Hodges cut a solo album of his own as well.
