Duelling Banjos by Cricklewood

[11070100]

another superb version of how bluegrass should be played.where have you been all these years?dave

[aliwhitwell]

@11070100 Thanks Dave. Cricklewood broke up many years ago but Ali Fyvie and Gerry McKenna (both banjo pickers) started up other bands over the years. Ali now does some session stuff and Gerry plays with a band called North Sea Gas sometimes. I'm hoping to have a wee jam with them both sometime soon.

Beautifully played and ... raw! Very authentic sound! Should be featured on You Tube.

[aliwhitwell]

Hey thanks again! How do you get a video featured??

[MsSwampduck]

With gratitude to Ali and the boys for the beautifull contribution of Tequila Sunrise played at the funeral of Essie..

It meant a lot to two of us

[aliwhitwell]

Thanks. It meant a great deal to Ali, Gerry and me too. Essie was a great friend, brilliant musician and singer. He will be sadly missed.

I used to work with Gerry McKenna, best banjo player ever...

[aliwhitwell]

Hey thanks for that. I'll pass on your comment. I'm sure Gerry will be delighted to hear it.

[PressPlay2Go]
