Dutch Coleman & Red Whitehead

As a matter of fact very little is known about Coleman and Whitehead these days. Coming from some place in or near the Ozarks area there basically are only two recordings of the duo. Apparently "Booneville Stomp" and "Dad's Getting Fuzzy" happen to be pretty much the exact same percussive fox chase-like rhythm.
Nevertheless they are still some quite catchy and technically brilliant pieces of harmonica playing and therefore are featured on many of the early harp compilations such as "Harmonica Masters" for instance.

"Booneville Stomp"
"Dad's Getting Fuzzy"

If you do have further information on the duo
pls clue me, I'd really appreciate it!

Check out Juneberry78s.com for MP3 discs of OTM compilations. Dutch Coleman has some excellent solo tracks on record...there's a lot of really hidden gems, I'd say.

What led you to think this duo was based in the Ozarks? I'm trying to track it down.

Who's the harmonica player of the two?
