Now, maybe your image of a banjo is something that sits on Granny Smith's lap while she strokes Flash the basset hound and waits for the Confederate boys to boot the Yankees out of Atlanta. There is still hope for redemption, even for those prejudiced few who've let their musical image of the banjo be perverted by Roscoe P. Coltrane and Boss...
