Excellent example of Uncle Dave Macon's work.,
By
This review is from: Go Long Mule (Audio CD)
This cd is another fine reproduction of Uncle Dave Macon's music and fun. A couple of tracks have some noise in them but all-in-all this is a fine recording. If you like real country music this is for you. The liner notes are even worth reading.

Uncle Dave Sure Do Shine,
By Tony Thomas (SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Go Long Mule (Audio CD)
Uncle Dave was the last of his generation, an entertainer who spand was from the 1870s until the 1950s, and one of the first big stars of the Grand Ole Oprey. Well, it wouldn't matter if these records had been made about a 18 year old guy from Westwood in LA. Uncle Dave is great. He's a good banjo picker--although his showmanship, sympathy for his age, braggadocio, and now and then having his accompanyiest the Great Sam McGhee pick in his place in behind the curtain banjo competitions more than his playing is more responsible for his reputation as a great banjo playor or the best. However, what he really is is a great entertainer. These records are fun. Dave is whooping it up, he's giving you emotion, mostly happy motiion. You get the product of a person that this music is fun, not some dry, vestigial, documentary rendition. This stuff is fun, not history, for laughter and joy, and you are as close to seeing the show, to enjoying a pro as you can be from a record with these tunes. My favorite here is Sail Away Ladies. I find it very hard to listen to this without taking out my banjo or guitar. keep picking Dave
