Old Time 'field recording' 1972 w/ The Byrds & Earl Scruggs

Even if Old Time ain't your thing you might enjoy this for the vintage gear spotting!

The whole documentary's a great snapshot of the times... 🪕 🎸 🥁 🎤 🎛️ 🖭

This post sent me on a bender of banjo-shredding YT vids. I hadn't taken time out to listen to some furious plucking like that in ages, so I thank you :)

There was a time when this sort of music was anathema to me but it's funny how learning an instrument can rearrange one's perspective and taste. I draw inspiration from just about anything now but I particularly enjoy going back to the roots of it all.
