Search - Banjo Dan and the Midnite Plowboys :: Like a River: A Bluegrass Journey

A compilation of 17 most-requested numbers from the band's first eight albums, 1974-1994. "Essential listening for Vermonters native or new" (Seven Days). Hermann Hesse ("Siddhartha"), Ernest Hemingway ("Big Two-Hearted River") and Mark Twain in numerous writings have remarked lyrically on the continuity of life, beautiful and inevitable, through the imagery of rivers. The theme runs through musical compositions as well. On an original song on our 2000 recording, 'Some Rust, Runs Good,' Banjo Dan weighed in with these words: "Time flows along like a river; one way forever downstream" This disk charts our journey upon that river. If you want to come, we'll hold the boat for you. Climb in.
