TWO HIGH STRING BAND's HOT TEXAS BURRITO -

It is wonderful to be a part of this really outstanding Austin, Texas based band.  The CD features many great original songs and instrumentals.  I even get a chance to try a John Coltrane tune, “Lazy Bird,” I have had worked up for a number of years.  Billy Bright is and talented and dynamic mandolinist and has several highly noteworthy instrumentals and songs on the project – “Jerusalem Café,” High on the Ohio,” E. Compton Blues,” and “Waltz into Morning.”  Geoff Union, a fine guitarist and songwriter, contributes the outstanding instrumental, “Over and Out,” and songs “Spirit of ’94,” “Ferris Wheel,” and “Many Paths Along the Way.”  Brian Smith sings a powerful version of “I’ve Just Seen the Rock of Ages,” as fiddler Eric Hokkenen adds the just right mournful touch.  Rounding out the group is multi-faceted bass man, Mark Rubin.

Hello City Limits, High on the Ohio, Ferris Wheel, Jerusalem Café, Homesick, Lazy Bird, Many Paths Along the Way, E. Compton Blues, Spirit of '94, Waltz into Morning, I've Just Seen the Rock of Ages, Over and Out.

Dear Banjo Picker,

I began the mail order business many years ago but it has been dormant for the last several years. I have decided to get back into the business in a rather small way for now.

The business is truly of the cottage variety. Many of the tab items are self- produced without the aid of a computer, although some are published through Mel Bay and look right nice. I like to say of the self-produced tab, it's in my handwriting but you will learn to love it (that's my hope). Some of the CDs are self-produced (quality, studio produced bluegrass). As I progress and get more time, I will upgrade and blast into the 1990s and get better at computer programs. Until then I hope you find some things that will bring you joy both as a listener and a student of the banjo.
