"At the Brandywine Mountain Music Convention in the Summer of 1976, Ola Belle sat under a tree and talked for an hour with s fourteen-year-old boy raised to the sounds of rock, who was attending his first traditional festival. His jaw dropped when she told him she had been playing forty years, as if that were an incomprehensible span of time." - David Whisnant
