In order to be as good as that, you’d just have to be him, and nobody
else ... Bob Dylan
The guitar fostered great creativity
in the South as it evolved from a small gut-string instrument in polite
parlors to the big, loud, steel-string guitar now found in our homes and
onstage. Mike sings and plays a variety of the styles that were played in
the rural South from about 1850 to 1930 on 25 different types of guitars.
Featured are: banjo-like styles, rags, blues, parlor and parlor-based
styles, slide guitar styles, and many song accompaniment styles.
