"BANJOMAN: A TRIBUTE TO
DERROLL ADAMS"

RISING SON RECORDS RSR-2102-2

Produced by Hans Theessink and Arlo Guthrie
Project Coordination: Milica Theessink

Although this album came out in 2002, it is one that
is ever-current. I became a Derroll Adams admirer
many years ago when a 10" album of him with
Ramblin' Jack Adams came into my possession.
Without the likes of Derroll, Woody Guthrie, Cisco
Houston and Ramblin' Jack, Folk and Country
music would not have been able to progess. Their
music was real. Derroll was the last of the piratesI
thank Arlo Guthrie and T-Shirt Cathy for getting into
my hands. Just reading the names of some of the
performers takes me back to my folknick years at
the end of the 60s.
