Book Reviews of Minstrel Banjo
Book Review: Interesting But Incomplete
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is fascinating as a beginner's guide to the minstrel banjo playing style, but it comes with a major flaw. None of the songs in the book have any lyrics! I don't know if this is the case in the original, "Brigg's Banjo Instructor," but it does cripple the book as a whole. Most of this music was made to sing to, and minstrel music is quite a bit less "colorful" in its choice of epithets than most of what blasts out of people's stereos these days. If you're looking for the definitive introduction to minstrel banjo, this is unfortunately not it.
