Thread Name: should the mandolin/banjoist play with e
Subject: RE: Folklore: should the mandolin/banjoist play with e
Life is full of interesting paradoxes.
The guitar player may think the accordion player is obnoxiously intrusive, and want the accordion to be silent from time to time, but not want to be silent himself. But the acoordion can produce a bieutiful sound suitable for certain songs too.
So with any instrument.
But then some think..
"If it aint got a guitar in it, it aint folk!"
"If it aint got a banjo in it, it aint bluegrass!"
"If it aint got a (particular style) banjo in it, it aint real bluegrass!"
