Abstract:

Western Carolina traditional country and mountain music singers Scott and Eleanor Cooper Wiseman performed under the names Lula Belle and Scotty. For almost 30 years from the 1930s to the 1950s, they were a mainstay of the \"National Barn Dance\" radio program, performing traditional music and their own compositions. Wiseman's most famous composition is \"Have I Told You Lately That I Love You.\" This singing duo brought Appalachian music into mainstream American culture.
