Shackleton: If you play bloo*dy Whistlin' Rufus or Swannie River one more time that damn banjo is going on the fire!<br />
<br />
:-)<br />
<br />
ps. I speak from experience as this is just what our neighbours said about my banjo when they heard Whistlin' Rufus.<br />
<br />
I was only just learning to play the banjo and was playing it over and over again for about 4 hours a day...every day !<br />
<br />
I can't understand some people. :-)

I was intrigued by PS demonstrating how a regular banjo sounded superior to a z-b and how it sounded not as good as the z-b sample.<br />

Well spotted Russ, it is going to be an interesting listen - few will remember the battle that was fought to keep the banjo in the museum away from certain greedy people. I'm intrigued to know about Pete Stanley building a banjo for Tim - a z-b?

Oh yes indeed, Shackleton insisted Hussey bring along his banjo, a Windsor z-b that had previously serenaded members of the Nyum-Nyum tribe in the Sudan, saying : "It is is vital mental medicine and we shall need it". Hussey also played for penguins, who made clear their musical preferences.<br />
