WGN Barn Dance, after the show moved from WLS where it was dropped. Johnny Frigo on violin, his cousin Lino Frigo on accordion, "Tiny" Murphy on steel, and PROBABLY "Red" Blanchard on electric guitar.

The "hillbilly-music.com" site info is from a time period that ends two decades before this group on video. Those early versions of The Sage Riders probably didn't have a steel player anyway. Steel was not that common in the "Upper Midwest" groups until the 1950's. Accordion was more common. And because of the different ethnic mix the accordion player usually sang, and set lists had Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, Danish, Dutch, German, Bohemian, and so on dance and traditional tunes included. The YouTube clip posted shows an early circa 1963 Cordoxox accordion amplifying system and a late 1960's Res-O-Glas National electric guitar which dates the time frame much later.

The guitarist COULD be Jimmy Hutchison, Barn Dance vocalist Dolph Hewitt's brother-in-law, but I said PROBABLY Blanchard because he was a known National endorser.
