I don't have time to go to many live concerts.  Work has changed and life has become increasingly complicated.My good friend Tom invited me to go see Geoff Muldaur.  To be honest I only had a dim memory of him from his jug band days wit

Friday, 30 November 2007 12:00 A GMT-05
Back in the late seventies I fell in love with folk music.  Since it was well past the Folk Scare of the Sixties I was able to quietly acquire the entire catalog of people like Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, and Dave Van Ronk.  After I devoured all

Time to get Sirius

My wife has always had a hard time finding her music. Radio stations never quite fit her eclectic tastes. I'm not much help since my musical tastes go to the other end of the spectrum. I would never listen to Lite Jazz. Today she wa

Steve Martin

I've always enjoyed the comedy and movies of Steve Martin. I was aware that he played the banjo but it never matter much to me until my current obsession.

Music While I was gone

Monday, 15 May 2006 10:25 P GMT-05
I spent a lot of time working on the banjo and the guitar. One of the things I did was spend some time with my father-in-law, Stephen. He's a multi-instrumentalist who played mandolin in the Navy back in the forties. He's the one th
