Description: Bobby Taylor (Vigortone VT-2005) Plays Ragged Shirt and Other Favorite Fiddle Tunes from West Virginia - with Jeff Miller and Jim Nelson. A 2008 release from one of today's master old-time fiddlers. "Rugged Shirt" features 22 fiddle tunes -- some rarities and some classics -- played by one of West Virginia's contemporary old-time fiddle masters, Bobby Taylor. Bobby is ably backed up by Jeff Miller's masterful banjo picking, both clawhammer and Scruggs-style, and the solid guitar playing of Jim Nelson. Bobby is widely known as a contest fiddler and judge, and may be best known as organizer of the contests at the Appalachian String Band Festival at Clifftop, WV. On this CD, the feel is more laid back than some of his earlier recordings, the focus being more on the old-time aspects of his playing and repertoire. Throughout, Bobby pays tribute to some of his major influences - among them Clark Kessinger, Doc Roberts, Mike Humphreys, and Sam Jarvis - while putting his own highly individual stamp on the tunes.
