Rio De Janiero Blues - Gail Wade, Peg Harvey, & Rob Rainwater w/ Dan Menzone, Emory Lester

03-21-2009 From the Vanilla Bean - Pomfret CT - "to Bean and be seen!"
A fantastic rendition of the great blues song. Gail has great control over the vocals and the musicians are phenomenal. Joining Gail & the original Turning Point members Peg Harvey and Rob Rainwater is Dan Menzone who recently returned from his solo banjo recording with the Rice Brothers down in VA. This style is different than his traditional solid bluegrass banjo, but what a sound! Emory Lester came for a visit from Ontario Canada - an award winning mandolinist and it shows here!
Add Peg Harvey on the soprano saxophone and Rob Rainwater on Bass for a superb rendition.
