Recorded in December, 1987 and released in 1992, the original recording of Adams County Breakdown is among 24 tracks by various Rounder banjo artists. From the liner notes by Tony Trischka: This hour-long compilation brings together many of the best banjo recordings in the extensive Rounder catalog, revealing an instrument capable of a wide range of textures and emotions. While the majority of the tunes are drawn from the loamy fields of bluegrass, these banjo masters offer striking contrasts in musical direction and in individual approaches to the instrument. Here is a definitive and always enjoyable overview of contemporary banjo music. See the complete track listing below for song titles, recording artist and featured banjo player |
