Perry Riley

Perry Riley: was Buddy Thomas' cousin and a fine country fiddler in his own right (an instrumental performance appears on volume 4 and several more can be found on Rdr 0376).  All his life he had wandered the South in search of work, living at different times in West Virginia and Arkansas.
