In 1990 Danny Barnes hooked up with fellow Austin, TX musicians Mark Rubin and Ralph White to create an incredible 14-track gem that was released on the Quarterstick label. This was the very first Bad Livers album that led to 5 more incredible offerings from these bluegrass/americana hipsters.Delusions of Banjer burns out of the gate as a true bluegrass album complete with the amazing handywork of Danny Barnes on guitar and banjo and Mark Rubin's big boppin, slap happy, right-on-time bass with Ralph White's incredibly relevant fiddle work working over top of it all. Then during track three you realize that this is not a typical bluegrass album as a big fat Tuba joins the rythym section... and it's fabulous!
I am offering up the hopping "Git Them Pretty Girls" this morning.
