episode 5. The Banjo Player cover

Description

Reverend Frankie Revell is not only a state champion banjo player but also makes one-of-a-kind stringed instruments from discarded materials. He then sells them to raise money for local people to take driver's education classes so they can commute to work. At his home in LaVale, Maryland, Revell talks about the history and future of the banjo, and how he himself comes from a long line of banjo players.
