Sitting on Top of the World with Wry Whiskey

This recording was made in my living room in 1998; we called our
trio Wry Whiskey. I'm picking banjo and singing, such as it is. The
guitar player was Brian Clancey, who now plays in a duet with
fiddler Robin Warren as Spirit Fiddle. Brian is the best back-up
guitar player I ever heard, bar none. Here he is fingerpicking; we
experimented a lot with the mixing together of finger style banjo
and guitar. Tom Speth was the bass player; his knees have given
out, and so he doesn't play much music anymore, but we've gone
fishing together a few times over the last several years, which is
almost as much fun.
