      Audience Member Not a great or particularly artful documentary, but it is great fun if you love music or have a fascination with buckdancing (Emmylou does it). John Hartford pretty much hosts, which is great if you are a bit of a music wonk because John was a walking encyclopedia of old time music (especially fiddle tunes). Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
