This was recorded while Smokey Ward and the
Barrel Head Gang were at WPFB in Middletown, Ohio in the early 1950s. Some notable members of the band were Jim & Jesse McReynolds and Fairley Holden. Smokey does the vocal on "Dog Bite Yo' Hide". It's made up of folksy sayings that Smokey used on his radio shows. It's the same song recorded later by Jimmie Martin who picked it up while
working with Smokey at WPFB. The vocalist on
"Doin' My Time" was Fairley Holden who probably did as much to popularize the song in southwest Ohio as Jimmie Skinner himself did.
SIDE 1--"DOG BITE YO' HIDE"

SELLERS PACKING NOTE TO BUYERS: WE PACK VERY SECURELY AND HAVE SHIPPED COMMON/VALUABLE 78 RPM RECORDS ALL OVER THE WORLD...SO PLEASE REST ASSURED THAT YOUR RECORD WILL ARRIVE SAFELY. We grade using the standard 78 rpm VJM grading system: N As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). N- Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. E+ Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. E- Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. V Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. V- Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. G+ Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches. G Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. G- Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive. F Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
