Still, there are places where the banjo is dismissed as a peripheral member of the American musical instrument team, employed for nothing more substantial than Dixieland sing-alongs. I should add that Bill was an aficionado and lover of Southern music, and he told this story in the spirit of a friend. He returns half an hour later and the back seat has four more banjos. He parks the car on the street, opens all the windows, puts the banjo on the back seat and walks away. No one will take it.įinally, in desperation, he drives his car to the worst crime-ridden part of town, a place where nothing is safe. He tries to give it to schools, to shops, to his friends.
