- Buell Kazee explains banjo tuning and playing. From a dvd called "Traditionnal music classics" issued by Shanachie
You can visit my blog dedicated to explore the music of Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music: oldweirdamerica...
Oh, I love Buell Kazee. Didn't realize there were any videos of him. Lady Gay is one of my favorite tunes..
Very very helpful Thanks you !!!He is wonderful . Describing the Raking with the thumb !! Thats a lot of years work .. Guy
cool thanks! it's got a nice sound......
Killer! I had no idea there was footage of Kazee. His version of "Wagoner's Lad" sends shivers down my spine each time I listen.
Fantastic! Thanks for posting.
@kazeejohn It's so great to see Buell Kazee come to life in this video. I greatly enjoyed his music when I first heard it on the Harry Smith collection (which opened my mind to so many great rare pieces).
This is very special. Thanks for posting it!
So nice to find some footage of these older players, and pretty rare too....
One of the best. His tone especially is tremendous.
I really should probably know, but does anybody know what model gibson that would be?
thanks!
Wish I could have met Buell. He was a classic.
great videos and informative blog. keep up the good work.
That's great, thanks for putting it up.
Are you also related to Steve Kazee, the guy who plays 'Guy' in the musical Once which is likely to win Tony Awards tonight?
KZ IN DA HOUSE!
So amazing.. think he knew it was a black instrument? He's sure describing it like he knew. That's some great banjo banjo picking right there. Too bad that in every phase of popular American music Black people were forced to take a back seat... Long live the musicians and music lovers that know... and long live the great spirit of African music that rises from the harshest clutches of it's repressed history. Thanks for posting.
Makes no difference to me but this is just stolen from the FolkSeattle channel. Those folks actually created this and all the other amazing videos of the rediscovered black and white musicians of the 20s and 30s. They certainly deserve all the credit
People that want to learn finding this video is what's most important though. It's a segment from one of two 15 minute vids. Buell was an educated man from Georgetown College right here in the heart of Central Kentucky. For those of you that don't know it's home arguably, to the finest thoroughbreds, whiskey and fertile tobacco-growing land in the entire world. A world away from the landscape and culture of Eastern Ky mistakenly pictured by most as the definitive snapshot of this commonwealth.
I've seen people almost literally heartbroken over the years when told their romantic ideas of Bluegrass musics origins in the Appalachian Mountains should be spun 180° and several hundred miles to Bill Monroe's birthplace in the Rolling Hills of Western KY. Please don't believe what you hear people and under no circumstances ever trust a word that comes from my mouth🎉
