Golden era WS steeler Beryl Harrell gets further recognition

Post by Ron Whitfield »

Beryl's son Don Triolo has furthered his Mom's once largely forgotten memory/legacy with a page full of info on this roots country music site;

Deservedly, Beryl is now gaining more and more exposure worldwide as the talent/pioneer she and few other women were during those post WW2 years.
The page includes a link at the bottom to the comedic tune GOOFUS.

The fall 2011 issue #23 of the Fretboard Journal also has a nice feature article with lots of pics on Beryl Harrell.
