Wow - I've certainly got a crush on her voice if not her instrument although I admit that in this instance it's not too offensive. However, imagine what it would sound like if she'd had someone like George Van Eps (to pick a name at random) or even your good self to back her up?
But yes, point taken there are occasions when a banjo is better than a guitar - like if you get in a fight..
That's enough jazzy stuff - let's have a bit of culture!

Ukulele Mozart, loved it, the things you learn on this blog!
Checked PoCaRa out certainly an unusual version of "I Found a New Baby". The Cymbalom sounds like a cross between a harp and a banjo; I wonder who he gets when he needs a dep?
