Not credited on LP or CD
According to a blog specializing in country music discographies, the "Uncle Charlie Interview" was recorded in November 1968. In actuality, this recording was done in November 1963 (per the liner notes of the Dirt, Silver and Gold LP). The error comes from a typo found on a CD reissue of the Dirt, Silver and Gold album. Despite the fact that this is simply an interview that pre-dates the band's formation and features no other musicians besides the titular Uncle Charlie, it has been blindly assumed on the (incorrect) date alone that Chris Darrow and Ralph Barr play on this track and therefore on this album.
