Banjodan - great playing! And beautiful scenery :)

Do you any "modern" players who've recorded renditions of traditional songs. Love my Doc Boggs and Clarence Ashley etc - just not always diggin the 8-track fuzz on the old cuts :)

Any reccomendations?

All the musicians involved with the movie "Cold Mountain" are great, including Dirk Powell and Riley Baugus. I also really like the band Old Crow Medicine Show. Some of their albums are more old-timey than others, but a great deal of it is very traditional. They have a unique rough and rowdy sound. The Foghorn String Band is good. Tim Obrien is good, but edges closer to bluegrass than old-time in a lot of his music. Enjoy!

Great accent. You sound like Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs.

Thanks... I think...?

I appreciate your mixture of music videos with farming videos. My Ozarks site also includes a mixture of old-time music with history videos I've made.

Anyway, this video is fun to listen to and look at. Are those family pictures and picxtures of your farm?

Looking forward to more music.

Thanks! I just stole the pictures from google image search. I'll get some more tunes out if I ever find the time.

Does a mole make this sound?

Never heard of the song until now. Great job playing. I love the banjo! So does my little girl. At 7 years old she has great taste in music. Love the video as well. I gives a sense of a peaceful and slow pace of life. Something to enjoy and reminisce. Thank you.

The man at 1:00 is named Jenes Cottrell, from Dead Fall Run WV, He is a distant relative. He made that Banjo from the torque converter of a 57 Buick....thanks for posting this.

from the playing originally of bascom lamar lunsford, a southern judge who started the ashville, north carolina folk festival... he sought to preserve mountain culture in the face of the horrors of "hillybilly" stigmatisation. he contributed over 300 songs to the library of congress.
