Banjo Newsletter 2011

 

Here's what the editor of BNL, Don Nitchie, has to say about "Girl With the Banjo Tattoo" after a first listen.

"Here's an old-time recording for you: "The Girl with the Banjo Tattoo" by Mary Z. Cox, consisting of 14 old-time tunes on eight different banjos in 10 different tunings! Stand-out cuts include Sweet Bama on a custom Chuck Lee paired with dulcimer; Last Chance on a cigar box banjo in fDFCD, and Chickens Crowin' at Midnight on a Bowlin fretless (dADF#A) paired with a banjolin. Just tunes, performed solo or duet, no singing, yet somehow a lot of variety. Good Stuff! "
