Old time banjo players especially have a reason
to visit. There were more open backs on the racks than you can imagine
in one place -- Ramseys, Omes, Deerings and more. Jim says as soon
as one comes in, he orders its replacement. That's optimism, folks.
And Jim can play em too!
Then there was the recording selection. More old
time CD's than you can listen to in a month. And, just to be sure,
a fine selection of guitars, bass's, mandolin's and more. You'll
have to see the selection of banjo instruction books and videos
for yourself to believe it.
I met Jim at Winfield last year when he agreed to
host my 'Meet the Banjo' workshop, as well as set up a clawhammer
workshop and lessons. Well, that then turned into a concert, held
in the store, and also a chance to record with Jim for his upcoming
album 'Stiff Legged Opossum.' In March alone, I was to be followed
by banjo masters Ken Perlman and Mike Seeger.
