This resource certainly ranks as one of the best links which Mudcat has given me. Thanks for finding it Stewie!
I will definitely be using it to give me a bigger repertoire than I have previously been able to hear on the small number of Old-Time recordings I have found in the UK during my past 25 years of banjo playing. Many of these performers were, before today, just names or photos in Pete Seeger's 5-string banjo book. I look forward to hearing what they actually sounded like.
By the way - does anyone know how they made that constant scratchy popping noise in the background? Does Catspaw make the instument? ;o)
Quack!!!!!
