[dcab-l] Ben Eldridge -Scene from Afar: "Banjo Whip"

Songwriters & Music Lovers:

 

Here’s a recording from my new CD (2021) “Scene from Afar”:

 

          

 

This CD is a re-issue of a 1987 vinyl album of all original material, mostly featuring

Seldom Scene musicians.  This banjo cut was a Ben Eldridge contribution to the

album.  All cuts on the album contained Washington references;   I named Ben’s

selection “Banjo Whip” in reference to a Governmental “Whip”:  an official of a political

party whose task is to ensure party discipline in a legislature.  More than that, though,

“Whip” seems to relate to a banjo!
