Oh, and:

Uncle John Scruggs - “Little Log Cabin Round the Lane” (1928)
quote:

Uncle John Scruggs was an American banjo player, born a slave.

There exists film of him performing the folk ballad “Little Log Cabin Round the Lane” in a minstrel style. The footage was taken by the Fox Movietone News, in Powahatan, Virginia on November 8, 1928. Uncle John Scruggs played 5-string banjo in the traditional clawhammer style. There are no other known recordings of his music.
