It was quite some time ago, the early to mid 1980's I'd guess, when I first met Larry Wallace and heard his banjo playing.  To say that I was impressed with his playing would be an understatement.  More recently I've heard his work much more often in his present capacity as a member of Jimmy Martin's "Sunny Mountain Boys".  The more I hear Larry play, the more I appreciate his solid timing, clarity of tone and his versatility.  The personnel on this recording session are like a who's who of instrumentalists.  This is a group of pros at work and it makes for enjoyable listening.  Put it on your stereo and slip your shoes off because it's foot-pattin' music at its best.

His banjo work is impeccable, clean and bold.  It's the kind of flat out unstoppable picking that could best an entire brass band, the kind that can drill a ten-penny nail into an oak tree at 30 paces yet draws you closer to hear more and more.  Friends, this is Bluegrass with a capital B for banjo.

"Larry ranks with three of the best banjo players that have worked and traveled the road with me who know all of my songs - Larry Wallace, J. D. Crowe, and Bill Emerson."
