Description
Excerpted from the website:
- In the back of his landmark instruction book, Earl Scruggs and the Five String Banjo, the master of the five string included an old photograph which has always fascinated me. It shows two, maybe three musicians sitting on the porch stoop of a rural cabin. One has a fiddle, the second a banjo, and the third a demijohn, but whether the jug was for refreshment or bass accompaniment Scruggs doesn't say. The scene reminds me of his partner, Lester Flatt's famous remark that in the old days, "Down in our part of the country, it hasn't been too many years ago since just a five string banjo and a fiddle was kinda called a band down that way. When you mentioned a band, one'd reach and get the fiddle and the other'n the banjo, and they had it all ready to go."
