Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck - right music!

From the 2002 Bonnaroo festival in Tennessee.

If you haven't seen this DVD yet, or any of the other years, then do yourself a favour and look it up. There's just one or two tracks from each band, so the music is very varied, but it's played to an exceptional standard. I guarantee something for everyone’s taste.

My fav (Phil Lesh and Bob Wier, ex Grateful Dead) isn't on YouTube yet but this will do for now:

Edgar Meyer (bass) and Béla Fleck (banjo), I think it's called 'The B song'.

  1. That really is a stunning piece of musicianship. I recently got a whole DVD of Béla Fleck & the Flecktones (Live at the Quick) and I'm convinced that they must be the most talented aggregation of instrumentalists in the world at the moment.

  4. Brilliant! Even though this probably is meant for clogging, I kept envisioning Celtic dancers.

  5. It gets my foot tapping, and at twice the speed of Edgar Meyer's I notice.
