Steve Martin - Foggy Mountain Breakdown

Not many people remember Steve's humble beginnings. I am a humor geek. I had all his albums (on vinyl) and as a kid, knew all his routines. It helped shape my sense of humor.

As far as the banjo goes.... Steve Martin is to the banjo what Weird Al Yankovic is to the Accordian.  Simply amazing talent.

And he can actually juggle cats.... incredible!

it is gangster all the way

whether you like this type of music or not, it takes a lot of talent to play this type of music. I believe Mr. Martin "shredded" his banjo...as the guitarists call it when someone does exceptionally intricate work on their instruments

Good pickin'.  He plays with feeling and passion. And he's sooooooo funny!

no he's saying how other people think it's bad

Steve Martin playing a banjo(and well)...Who knew???

read his biography. there is ALOT that you dont know about steve martin

Puts an arrow through his head , man i love this guy

Hillbilly/redneck isn't a bad thing. The bad thing is the idea that the banjo is only a hillbilly/redneck instrument and nothing else. It has African roots and can play a lot of different driving kinds of music, in all kinds of rhythms.

Totally agree.
