yes exactly a recording on an audiocassette, of me playing guitar and guido the fantastic banjo, we were rehearsing probably before some gig here in rome (not that the local pub audience knew a lot of bluegrass, but this one was always appreciated by everyone). But never in the world I tought why there's not a second banjo ... youre right pine! Said that, are you ready for an appalacchian-french-italian bluegrass party (but forget I'm playing that fast anymore lol)?

Outrageous speed.
Q: why do they play do fast?
A: because they can...
Fun listen but your version was more soulful.
I still love good bluegrass, but if it's too fast, I don't have the chops. These days I'm falling back into more old time/traditional songs. Thanks for sharing your stuff.

Quality cover from a piece that is in the public consciousness. So very well played, and a very difficult one to pull off, which was done at ease. Full respect deserved.
Deliverance is a brutal but classic film, it still has impact today.

Been meaning to watch Deliverance again some day as it's one of my favourite movies. Don't think it's on Netflix. Anyway... brilliant stuff here. You really pulled this off. I can only admire the talent involved in this. Soooo good, and how good is it to hear a banjo in all it's glory!

It's a scientific fact that you can't listen to Dueling banjos and not grin and tap yer foot.

Always loved this piece since seeing the movie. Great playing here and that banjo is singing. Excellent stuff; well done.
