Summary: Great music! 2010-07-22
Comment: I consider Steve Martin a creative genius. This album proves he is as talented as a musician as he is writer and actor. He has a real gift for melody and harmony and uses the banjo masterfully in this collection of original songs.I particularly love 'Daddy Played the Banjo' and 'Hoedown at Alice's'.

Summary: That banjo player who never had a kid 2010-06-22
Comment: Here we have an album of banjo music by Steve Martin. Some may think that this is his first music album, but The Steve Martin Brothers was half bluegrass music. In fact, five of the songs from this album originally appeared on that album (in different versions). Martin wrote or co-wrote all the songs here, with the exception of one medley of traditional songs. He plays the banjo really well, although he himself would never admit it. The songs are very good, and Steve is ably assited by his professional musician friends. A very entertaining album.
