Music reviews of North Carolina Banjo Collection
Music Review: Good Collection.
Rating: 4 Stars
Lots of songs. A variety of styles showcased(clawhammer, 2/3 finger pickin' etc). A few names you might be familiar with ...if you're familiar with the Anthology of American Folk Music set or of old timey music in general. Some really good songs. I don't know. Not every song was a hit with me though. Some bluegrassy tunes on here. I'm more into raw old mountain music. I enjoyed "Old Time Mountain Banjo" and "Mountain Music of Kentucky" more than this set although its not bad. If you can find this for a decent price then its definitely worth it. Otherwise...it's still worth it BUT not essential (just an opinion of course).
Well, overall this is still a good banjo collection. Not bad at all but it's not GREAT. It's easily a B/80-85%/4 Star album. There are better compilations out there and there are certainly worse.
