He has recorded this on his latest album: 'The Banjo in America'.

This is so very well recorded. Great production values as well as excellent playing.  That's my old Cammeyer Vibrante Royal banjo.  It looks like it has the same strings I put on it when I sold it to Bill.  A real gut string for the middle G and a "D Series"  copper-wound lute string (copper wound over a thin metal core which is wrapped in nylgut filaments),both from Aquila. These are the best sounding 3rd and 4th strings I've found for zither-banjos.  Nylon or Nylgut is also good for string 3.

Lovely!

The CD sales site, however, mistakenly believes I'll buy it without a track listing. I have been seeing that a lot. No tracks, no run time...a "trailer" for some reason...but otherwise, nothing but props from other famous people.

Seems weird. I like his stuff...but tell me what exactly am I going to get?

[Jody Stecher]

You're right. Nowhere on the website is there a track listing. It may be found here:

I like this album a lot. And it is two discs. A video disc and an audio CD.

Thanks Jody. Now I feel better!
