| QueenKush | Posted: Jan 17, 2013 - 19:56 This is a musical slingshot of two different cultures. Great journey from one to the other and then there is the blend of both, very nice.. I danced Salsa in the kitchen to it. More than fun. |
| Isabeau (sou' tex) | Posted: Dec 17, 2012 - 11:07 Thought it was Fleck, nice surprise! Going to check this album out further! |

Play The Scissor Sisters "Take Your Momma Out Tonight" and drink cheap wine. |

| Lyle8888 (Southfield, Michigan USA) | Posted: Apr 27, 2011 - 14:25 And how about Steve Martin? I've been seeing several live show of his lately, and Utube has videos of him with Earl Scruggs on Letterman's show. You can see what I mean and play cuts from his new album "The Crow" on www.npr.org also. There seems to be enough RP interest and enjoyment of many styles of bluegrass, so, other than his pesonal quirky songs, he plays a mean banjo on many styles — a really good player! Anyone else listenen without prejudice to all good music? |
| Jeff09 (Gainesville, Florida) | Posted: Dec 22, 2010 - 21:30 Tasty! I played claw hammer banjo a long time ago, and always thought it could be a good jazz instrument. Bela Fleck didn't do it for me. |

| bluematrix (confluence of mississippi and missouri rivers) | Posted: Aug 20, 2008 - 17:35 wow that piano sounds like joe sample big time |
| Darlington (Columbia, South Carolina) | Posted: Jun 18, 2008 - 12:58 Excellent CD.... |
| Ahnyer_Keester (Chicago Il) | Posted: Jun 18, 2008 - 12:51 So how cool is this? Neat song! |
| Gednabb (New York City) | Posted: Jun 18, 2008 - 12:49 just can't get into this kind of stuff. It's toe -tapping background---that's about it. Although the use of banjo is interesting! |
| starlisa13 (Saint Thomas, Virgin Islands) | Posted: Apr 16, 2008 - 14:20 I hear shades of the Sex and the City intro in this... |

| jbo (PEI Canada) | Posted: Nov 30, 2006 - 10:35 Looooove it!  |
| fretman | Posted: Nov 30, 2006 - 10:35 Nice combination of genres- 5-string Banjo and a latinesque combo. Not since the Tango scare of the 1920s has banjo and south-of-the-border sounds met in a wonderous way. For other cross-overs- check out Eileen Ivers mixing Celtic fiddle with African and Latin grooves... |

Absolutely |
| KKeith (NC) | Posted: Nov 30, 2006 - 10:33 Maybe Bela Fleck does have some peers... Can she play classical music on the banjo too? |

| OCDHG (Exiled Tennessean) | Posted: Nov 15, 2006 - 19:53 Nice surprise! Alison Brown is great. Never expected to hear her on RP, but glad. |

As a banjo player who's good enough for comedy purposes, I greatly appreciate banjo players who are better than good enough for comedy purposes. Which this is. Better than. |
| NewHorizons (City of Summer Festivals) | Posted: Jun 07, 2006 - 19:13 Fantastic! A 10! First time I hear of Alison Brown and if the rest of her material is anything like this amazing instrumental piece, I'm an instant fan! 
I see I am going to start widening my musical tastes from blues and rock and roll into jazz now with the excellent jazz selections I have heard here! (buying new CDs through RP, of course -- don't worry Bill!) Gotta love RP for helping open minded listeners discover new music! |
| mutepoint (Orbiting a black hole and feeling the pull) | Posted: May 09, 2006 - 14:47 She's really a great player. Caught her live at an outdoor event last year. Her old band - Alison Krauss & Union Station were also playing. Krauss has such a sweet voice that mixes with her banjo work almost to the point of distraction. With Alison Brown, you can focus on what a gifted player she is. I'd sure like to see her in a decent hall... |

*searching for String Cheese* Is it possible that the only String Cheese in the library is "Take Five," a cover???? I may have to man up and put my uploading shoes on for the first time.

Of course not! Not when you're among RP listeners!    |

| Ja300Mes | Posted: Feb 01, 2006 - 18:08 Yet another of the countless reasons why we love RP...something fresh that I've never heard before, but sounds familiar at the same time. Thank you! |
| Amazon (Big Bend, TX) | Posted: Jan 12, 2006 - 08:39 When I first heard this piece, I thought -- hey, new Bela Fleck... But no! This is someone new -- probably influenced by BF. The banjo/piano interaction is very nice, very fresh-sounding. I rather like Wooton's synth-axe drummitar, BTW. |
