Valley Ramblers

The Valley Ramblers were a solid traditional bluegrass band from the Dayton-Middletown area, fronted by Don Warmouth singing lead and playing guitar, Noah Crase playing banjo, and Bobby Gilbert playing bass and singing tenor. They cut two singles on Jalyn in 1967 and two LPs on the same label in 1967 and 1969. Their fiddle players alternated between Bennie Williams and Paul “Moon” Mullins. Harold Staggs and Buck Howard were added on their first single and David Cox played mandolin on their second album.
