movieman1957 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 "Hold Your Head Up" was a cool song. I have the long version from itunes. I think they were a one hit wonder though there may have been more than one album. A song I thought had the best use of a banjo in a pop/country type song was - (I have no idea why that popped into my head except I always thought it a good song.

movieman1957 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 There is a man named Bela Fleck who is a banjo player that came up on my internet jazz station. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWNiFw_W3mA This wasn't it but anybody who can work a banjo and a bassoon into a jazz tune must be on another wave length. He seems well grounded in country as well. Link to post Share on other sites
