"True" banjo dreams played by Büli

Wer ihn liebt, hier kann er ihn wieder hören: den fast vergessenen original "open back" Banjosound mit naturfellklang (Vega Artist, 1924). Dazu hat heute ein Jazz-Banjospieler ja kaum noch den mut. Büli aber demonstriert uns Banjo-spielern hier, was uns vielen Jahren alle mal zum Banjospielern antrieb. Mit den angenehmen, warmen, bassigen Banjoklang produziert Büli hier gekonnt Musik zum entspannten Genießen ohne unber mäßige-häufig nervige-Solistik, wie man es vielen Banjospielern wünschen möchte. Ganz besonders gefällt auch das Gitarrenspiel bei "If i had you".
Ein CD, die ich wohl haüfiger mal auflegen werde.
Günther Amendt, Düsseldorf.

If there's one thing that i notice first about any banjo player, it is their sound and Büli's sound has always been pleasing to my ear. It is reminiscent of an older, darker, more mellow tone from the days of calf skin heads. Büli once told me that Emanuel Sayles was a big influence on his style of playing. In my opinion, he could not have made a better choice. I am pleased that Büli has decided to do this banjo CD project. He sounds great playing lead banjo. His technique, combined with the tone of his instrument, makes for a beautiful listening experience. There are a lovely variety of songs and they all have a good feel.
Dear listener, may you enjoy wonderful sounds from a wonderful instrument played by my friend Büli.
Don Vappie, New Orleans
