Charlie Bowman(fiddle), Al Hopkins(vocal) and the Original Hillbillies from 1926.
Charles Thomas \"Charlie\" Bowman was the fiddler with the original Al Hopkin's Hill Billies, the first country string band to gain national notoriety on radio and records. The group is generally thought to be responsible for establishing the string band as an important part of country music. When the recording company asked for the group's name, one member mentioned that they were just an \"old band of hill billies.\" The name stuck. Bowman is credited with bringing the Hill Billies their most popular song, \"Nine Pound Hammer\".
