Details:
These are PETER K. SIEGELâs first recorded banjo performances since he played on Elektraâs Old Time Banjo Project in 1964. Says Siegel: âYou play this thing long enough, it begins to sound pretty good!â

In the interim, he produced more than 60 albums of traditional and roots-based music. Peterâs productions include albums by Doc Watson, Hazel Dickens, Joseph Spence, Roy Buchanan, Paul Siebel, and Los Pleneros de la 21.

Siegel founded the Nonesuch Explorer Series, for which he produced 15 albums of traditional world music. Folk Roots (UK) called Siegel âone of the earliest shapers of interest in world music.â His Gorô Yamaguchi album, A Bell Ringing in the Empty Sky, continues to make its way spaceward in NASAâs Voyager Time Capsule.

His recent three-CD boxed set Friends of Old Time Music was released by Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. The New York Times called the set âa boxed set of awesome and concentrated powerâ and The Boston Globe called it âa precious, wildly beautiful document.â

ELI SMITH is a banjo player, writer, researcher and promoter of folk music living in New York City. He regularly plays in a string band known as The Dust Busters, as part of the Roots ânâ Ruckus music collective, and hosts the internet radio show Down Home Radio.

He also presents Down Home Live, every second Saturday of the month at Banjo Jimâs on the Lower East Side, as well as the first annual Brooklyn Folk Festival, scheduled for May 15-17th, 2009.
