pickle2coverAll tracks taken from a wonderful mixtape by Jay Buckwold. Jay is a long time member of the Pacific Bluegrass and Heritage Society — probably the founder or at least the president at some point. He also ran the bluegrass camp in Sorrento for many years.

Jay plays a great version of Fresh Fish on the banjo, which sent me searching for a digital copy or otherwise. I couldn’t find it, so Jay gave me this tape. I love it and I listen to it every day on the way to work — my car has a tape deck…doesn’t yours?

Several of these tracks are hard to find digital copies of, so here you go. Pared down from the original 90 minutes to about 60 — if you want to hear the whole thing you’ll have to ask Jay. It took some prying out of my fingers, but he eventually got his tape back.
