(The Man With the) Rock and Roll Banjo Band
While working on this project I’ve been enthralled by how wide-spread the symbiosis between soul and country music was, all the way up into the 1970’s. This song is an audacious blending of the two. For me, it works, but I can understand those that feel the opposite.
