Ralph has been my favorite banjo player for many years now. He was so versatile but I think very under rated. His different styles of banjo playing illustrate the history of the instrument, and captures the true mountain sound. Great video!

Ralph had a hell of a set of hair, that’s for sure. I’m envious.
