Thanks, Brother. I can't wait to hear you play. It's been a while since I picked up my banjo, but maybe it's time to revisit that. Keep on walking....

Mr. King - I found it cool where you share that Joe McPhee switched from trumpet to tenor sax, and was self-taught. As fate would have it, I got a message from my MIL a couple of weeks ago & she was looking at a used Yamaha tenor (& a nice banjo too, but that’s for another story...) She grabbed both of them for me for a couple hundred $. Since then I have been on a journey of discovery myself, trying to decipher this instrument. While I can’t imagine I’ll ever get close to McPhee’s excellence it is still a blast to mess around with it! Keep on Truckin’, brother!
