Rounder Banjo Extravaganza Live (Rounder CD 0296) From the liner notes by Ira Gitlin: In the ranks of the straight-ahead bluegrass banjo players Tom Adams stands out like a diamond among the gems. Such praise might not be as exaggerated as it sounds. Other musicians - other banjo players - are ready to place Adams in that elite company that includes Earl Scruggs, Sonny Osborne and J.D. Crowe. He has the timing and the tone, of course. But he also has something that sets the truly great players apart from the merely excellent: subtlety, wit, a knack for making the new sound traditional and the traditional new. All this from someone who demurs with Scruggs-like modesty, "I just play the way I play and try to fit in"! Featured Musicians: Tom Adams, Tony Trischka and Tony Furtado - banjo David Grier - guitar Barry Mitterhoff - mandolin Mark Schatz - bass, frailing banjo James Leva - fiddle on "All Full Up" and "Go Home With The Girls In The Morning/Slate" |
