There's a wide range of styles on this cd. From straight hot jazz to absolutely screaming mad kazoo tunes!! There's three versions of 'you've Had Your Way' on here, each completely different from one another, other than the remarkable lead tenor banjo of Banjo Robinson.

Clickety click!

  1. Excellent music! He could be the Eddie Lang of the banjo (or is Eddie the Ikey of the guitar?).

  2. Eddie Lang is the Joe Venuti of the guitar, who is the Django Reinhardt of the fiddle, who in turn is the stephane grapelli of the guitar who also happens to be the Ikey Robinson of the Fiddle!! there, I do believe that's Settled!!

    hahah!

    cheers!
