    Thanks RTZ. It seems like popularity of banjos and ukeleles seem to have an ebb and flow. Right now they're both kind of surging for some wonderful reason!

    Sounds great Jim !  I got to see Pete live at the Philly Folk Fest many years ago, one of my treasured memory`s.

    Thanks Wes. Richey, I'm on a mission from the banjo gods to get old banjos playable and played. I fix them for free around here just just so folks wil maybe start playing. If this nudged you in that direction it makes me happy! Thanks for the kind words Silent Jim. You've given me some ideas to chew on. I usually think of an album by someone like me to be a bit of a vanity project but your thoughs about grandkids and the future appeals to me. Now where's my old reel to reel?

    Great tribute Jim. I dusted off and set-up my banjo after months of neglect yesterday. Might have to record my own too.
