| | Clawhammer Banjo Volume One CD
County Records originally released a truncated version of this collection of Appalachian clawhammer banjo players on LP in the 1960s. Recorded by Charlie Faurot live in the field, it provides a wonderful survey of a modal banjo style that has all but vanished in the 21st century due to the pervasive influence of modern bluegrass. Highlights include Wade Ward's "Old Joe Clark," Kyle Creed's bubbling version of "Ducks on the Millpond," Fred Cockerham's ancient-sounding vocal on "Long Steel Rail," plus four kinetic dance tunes from George Stoneman. All of these names will be familiar to serious fans of old-time music, but for the casual listener, the chiming, modal sound of the banjo on these traditional tunes will be revelatory. ~ Steve Leggett

Purchase Clawhammer Banjo Volume One CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Uncle Dave Macon Go Long Mule CD (1972)
Clawhammer Banjo Volume One album
 $12.95
A wild romp through 18 tracks recorded during Uncle Dave Macon's heyday period of 1926 through 1934, Go Long Mule is uniformly strong if not exceptionally complete. These are some of the most vibrant examples of old-timey music likely to be found, with Macon charging through shouters like "I'm Goin' Away in the Morn" and "Sail Away Ladies," even literally stomping out the rhythms of "Way Down the Old Plank Road." Joined by the Fruit Jar ...

SOUTHERN BANJO SONGS was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Traditional Folk Album.
Mike Seeger has spent the better part of 50 years unearthing and performing traditional American music. A former trustee of the Newport Folk Festival--as well as the son of renowned musicologist Charles and half brother to folk music icon Pete, Seeger is one of the nation's leaders in the performance and history of the banjo. Given the difficulty of presenting an exhaustive labor of scholarship and music and still making it interesting for the lay listener, SOUTHERN BANJO SONGS is a marvel. Rather than dissolving into dull study of an ...

Clawhammer Banjo Volume One album
$11.29  
On 2006's PRECIOUS MEMORIES, country superstar Alan Jackson ventures into gospel territory, offering up a set of warm and inviting faith-themed songs. These spare tracks feature no percussion and rely almost solely on piano and acoustic guitar, allowing the focus to remain on Jackson's resonant vocals and the songs' devoutly Christian lyrics. Although praising Jesus is clearly the core of this album, the beautifully minimalist renderings of spiritual classics are so ...
