Foggy Mountain Breakdown
In case your day needs an oasis of cheery Americana, free of ulterior agenda:
- Earl Scruggs, banjo
- Glen Duncan, fiddle
- Randy Scruggs, acoustic guitar
- Steve Martin, 2nd banjo solo
- Vince Gill, 1st electric guitar solo
- Marty Stuart, mandolin
- Gary Scruggs, harmonica
- Albert Lee, 2nd electric guitar solo
- Paul Shaffer, piano
- Jerry Douglas, dobro
- Leon Russell, organ
- Glenn Worf, bass
- Harry Stinson, drums.
I admit I am a little bemused to see Steve Martin and Paul Shaffer (of Dave Letterman fame) in the same band with the immortals of country music. I suspect I know what such lesser luminaries might be feeling. It was once my great privilege to appear in a Jack Vance homage anthology sharing a table of contents with the absolute biggest names among fantasy writers alive today.
