Banjo…, is blues icon Otis Taylor’s 15th album, his second album at NativeDSD and definitely his best. This is a stunning album both musically and sonically, recorded exclusively at Octave Record’s DSD studios in DSD 256.
Banjo… was recorded in Boulder over a two week period, with Otis Taylor’s band members flown in from all over the country for the occasion. On drums, the amazing Chuck Louden brings his rhythmic fire along with Nick Amodeo on bass and mandolin, J.P. Johnson on lead guitar, and on the B3 Hammond and Moog synth, the wild man himself, Brian Juan.
The music on Banjo… is Otis Taylor at his best. Have a listen to the samples to hear for yourself. This is a must-have masterpiece from one of the best blues musicians in the world. Pure Otis.
