G. E. 35 Masters of Tenor & Plectrum Banjo 1923-1940 CD $17.00
At the dawn of the radio & recording age, the 5 String Banjo of ragtime fame gave way to the Dixieland 4 String Tenor Banjo, tuned like the violin / mandolin and a Plectrum variation of the 5 String Banjo, that some played in a guitar tuning. The popular figures of the day opted for the Banjo, in many cases to have more volume in the rhythm sections of Jazz ensembles. The legendary players developed solos and in some cases had sufficient fame to make film shorts in the early days of talkies (motion pictures with sound).
