Description

Comedian, actor, author, and banjo player Steve Martin releases his first musical recording since 1978's number 1 hit "King Tut." This is no novelty record though. It's some of the excellent banjo music to come down the pike in a long time. The Crow features effective assistance from some of Steve's pals, counting Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, Earl Scruggs, Bela Fleck, Tim O'Brien and Mary Black. Martin wrote or co-wrote all of the songs on this album, creating a new body of work this will stand alongside the classics for years to come.

Customer Reviews

Disappointing - Expected More from Steve Martin 2010-03-01

By Colene M. White (Mesa, AZ USA)

We have always thought Steve Martin is a great banjo picker and have enjoyed everything we have heard. Perhaps we expected too much. We honestly didn't care for anything on the CD. We were hoping to hear more of a bluegrass type selection and that just isn't what is on this CD. I'm not really sure how to classify the songs, but we don't care for it.

really great 2010-02-18

By S. Ramirez

The music is charming and smart and feels generally great to listen to. The four vocal songs are great, and the instrumentals are cleverly put together. I really admire Steve Martin for putting this together.

blowing in the wind 2010-02-13

By Donald R. Ward (Grand Ledge, Mi USA)

This was a treat, what a talent - just when I thought I knew all there was about Steve Martin (stand up and film),now pure banjo picking - wow! I loved his comedy and his acting (well much of it) and had never really been a banjo picker devote', but this CD presents a new side not seen before and I'm hooked. The more I listened the more I liked. Can't wait for more.

The Crow : New Songs for the Five String Banjo 2010-02-01

By Robert L. Erskine (Lakewood Colorado)

Good solid fun music the is just uplifting. Well done with lots of special guest on the disc.

Pure Delight! 2010-01-31

By Patty (Seattle, Washington)

The Crow: New Songs for the Five-String Banjo was a pure delight to listen to. Steve Martin does not disappoint and his music leaves me wanting more. This CD is only intended for people who want to feel upbeat, happy and toe-tapping. I was surprised that the new release was not carried in a lot of stories, but easily obtainable with Amazon.
