Today this area is still home to a diverse assortment of blues and blues-related musicians. I asked Guitar Gabriel about older musicians whom he know and he mentioned Preston Fulp. We found Preston the next day outside his garage. He was happy to see his old friend Gabe and we talked and made music. These beautiful recordings of Preston capture his haunting falsetto voice and intricate East Coast guitar style. Preston Fulp, born in 1915, was a sawmill worker, a tobacco sharecropper, moonshiner and blues and old-time guitarist.He made these recording at the age of 78 and died a few months later in October 1993. Preston weaves stories of his life through both secular and sacred songs. He was the last original Piedmont bluesman from turn-of-the-century Winston-Salem.
