| 514.1 | whew! good thing I'm seeing Bela Fleck in a few weeks! | QUOIN::BELKIN | Nothin' left to do but :-) :-) :-) | Wed Feb 28 1996 11:26 | 22 |
| I think the liner notes are excellent. I like the part where Jerry describes
how his banjo playing influenced how he learned to play guitar. How playing
the banjo is a constant excercise in problem-solving, of moving the melody
(or is it the rythme? I always mix these up!) from finger to finger.
That he'd already "mastered" banjo by the time he picked up electric guitar,
so that when it came time to learn electric, he knew what to do (finger
excerises and stuff, I guess) to learn it.
Take a close listen to any of the CD 'cowboy' tunes - a hot '73 Me and My Uncle
for example. Listen carefully to Jerry's riffing style - its almost like
he's playing banjo, once you attune your ears to the banjo style!!
I was doing this and having fun mentally changing Jerry's guitar sound to a
banjo sound, while listening to the tape - just sorta reach into the audio
part of your brain and twist the "Jerry_Guitar_Sound" knob from "Telecaster" to
"Banjo" :-) It works!
Doesn't the studio album version of Cumberland Blues have a banjo come in
briefly, after the break and just before the "Lotta poor man got the
Cumberland blues, he can't win, for loosin'"? Or is my knob (helplessly)
stuck on Banjo? :-)

hey Divide Dave - these musicians are trying to make a living with
their art - send a few bucks their way when you make copies of
commercial music for your friends!

| Why doesn't Leblanc have any pants with zippers ?
Because farm animals can hear that zipper opening for miles, and run
with fright!
