I think I gave, first my brother, and then a girl friend a banjo before I figured out that I might just be interested myself.Then in early winter of 1970 I had a motorcycle crash on the "Tumble" outside of Cardiff in Wales and found myself with both a broken neck and the time and interest to get a banjo and Petes book on how to play the thing.The conpasion and humor in that book helped me through a pritty rough winter.I will always be exceedingly thankfull to Pete for his hard work on that little book and the integrity he has brought to everything he has been involved in.He is a great insperation to us all.........Guy Wolff..~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
