I am looking for any recordings or archive radio recordings of C/W radio shows that included "The Saddle Sweethearts", a Western group comprised of 4 girls (Betty Ann, Mary, Dottie & Rose Lee Maphis)from 1944 to 1947. They sometimes played on the same bill with The Carter Family, Tex Ritter, Gene Autry, Roy Acuff, Flatt & Scruggs, the Sons of the Pioneers, etc. Some of the places they played included WJEJ in Hagerstown Maryland, the Circle K in Norristown, PA, Liberty Park in Baltimore, MD and on the Barnyard Follies, KMOX in St. Louis, MO and other CBS radio affiliates. They performed alone and sometimes provided back-up for Bud Messner, Slim Stewart and Jesse Rogers. If you can help or provide other suggestions to research, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
