Farewell

Farewell My Home

One of the Top Ten Recordings of 1993 Mike Joyce, Washington Post

Delicate, sweet, sensitive, mellow, contemplative and graceful… high art indeed!; Alan Munde, Banjo Newsletter

In the hands of Ellis, the banjo teaches and uplifts. It inspires and reveres… beautifully recorded… exquisite guitar work of son, Bill…conjures up that rare feat of instrumental alchemy; it makes great music seem easy and approachable. Anyone with an ear for infectious melodies and thoughtful, respectful musicianship will find endless rewards here. Bluegrass Unlimited
