“with Bela Fleck and Tony Trischka...”
Respectfully, it’s pretty easy to sound great with Bela Fleck and Tony Trischka...not that he isn’t good, but....geeeez....listening to those two guys play is just the best there is.

Bela Fleck is amazing. He came out with a disc of classical stuff a few years ago, just him and some guests, and it was excellent. He's singlehandedly taken the banjo from bluegrass to jazz and wild improvisation. Martin's no slouch, and I'm not familiar with the other guy, but seeing Fleck is always good.

Darn fine sounds. Steve Martin is indeed a very talented entertainer and banjo picker along with his fellow pickers.
