It's funny to realize, after watching this, that apparently the banjo was pretty much an unknown instrument at the time of the release of this film. This was about 10 years before the folk explosion, I guess.
But what a cast this film has!!!
Alan Lomax, the writer of this film, was a music ethnographer who was frequently investigated by the FBI as a Communist sympathizer. Ironically, in 1986 he received the National Medal of Arts from Ronald Reagan.
