Also some friends from southern Ontario who may not be as famous, but I learn something every time I play with them or listen to them: Jay Edmonds, Rick Baur, Dennis Delorme, Karen Taylor, Kate Jarrett, Sam Allison and Teilhard Frost (who also builds wonderful gourd banjos)...
<><><><><><><><><><><><>

You will notice that all of these (except John Hartford, whose playing I have loved since I first bought Morning Bugle thirty years ago) are old-time banjo players, since this is the type of banjo music I enjoy playing. I have many favourite musicians who play 3-finger/bluegrass style banjo (like Al Kirby) and tenor banjo and who play other instruments, but if I put them all down the list would be too long for anyone to bother to read it anyway. I realize that some of the players I have listed are also bluegrass players, but their old timey style was what attracted me to their playing.

Sheebeg & Sheemore - CH 

Posted 5/20/2008 4:25:36 PM

I rarely play clawhammer waltzes, but this just came into my head once while I was messing around in double-C tuning.
