But I sure liked Crackerjack! I’m with you, banjo doesn’t usually do it for me, but that’s a fun, energetic piece. Thanks again for something unusual that opens up my musical horizons.

Same for me. Crackerjack is movin’.
I want the rest.

I don’t understand the comment about country. Reser plays the 4-string Tenor banjo, not the 5-string banjo as most country players (Charlie Poole, Dave Macon etc.) played. He is much more in the ragtime tradition, though there too, the 5-string was popular : Fred Van Epps, Vess L. Ossman.

Tha Banjo in all its forms is of course one of god’s own instruments and is wonderful in every way.

Yea i tend to only listen to pre-war country banjo or like post-war scruggs style bluegrass banjo, so this was amazing to hear. i need to check out the other ragtime banjo players you listed, stat.

it’s such sweet music…

If you haven’t heard Ossman or Van Epps you are in for a treat! (Van Epps of course was the father of a whole family of jazz musicians of whom George Van Epps the 7-string guitarist is probably the best known - he is rather fine too if you haven’t heard him)
