DESCRIPTION:
Mark Barnett is a banjo star of the first magnitude. His sound, ability, technique, and finesse at that instrument is superb. Being also trained and highly-skilled in the classical guitar, Mark brings musicianship to the banjo like no one else.

This fine recording made in the early-to-mid-1970s well documents this musician's skill. He is accompanied by an A-List of top Nashville studio musicians--a treat in itself, since most banjo recordings have not historically had the benefit of first-class accompaniment.

Listeners are encouraged to seek out his other banjo classics and some classical guitar from this artist on this Lost Nashville channel.

FLINT HILL SPECIAL (Earl Scruggs), from the LP "Both Sides of Mark Barnett" by Mark Barnett (Cherish Records, CS 12090). Produced by Don R. Smith and Dave Shipley. Recorded at Audio Media Recorders in Nashville, Tennessee with Paul Whitehead engineering.
