Ben Bonham: Recordings

Ben Bonham and Cap'n James Cook playing old time delta blues and ragtime.

Ben plays a 1927 National spare neck #2
tricone on track 6, an Arrow ‘Red Rocket’ archtop on track 4, a Kincaid Cabot Parlor guitar on track 7 and a 1930 National Triolian on all other tracks.

James plays a one string bass made out of a trashcan with a Model T horn, concierge bell, some antique milkcan drums and a splash cymbal.

Once again more reviews on "Bens Bands" page - this is a really great recording, it captured us in fine fettle.

A CD of original and traditional kids songs - performed by my One Man Band. The first track "Chew Your Food" is requested more often than any other song I play!

Many people still say this is their favorite Ben Bonham recording, the cover says - 'Beautiful atmospheric acoustic music. No matter the style or influence - from the Piedmont to the Delta, from Hawaii to home - Ben plays it with panache on this delightful CD".

The title says it all really - blues and rags abound.

Another very popular CD - steel guitar and ukulele, slack key and vintage Hawaiian. Recorded in San Francisco with the great Frank Novicki.

My original One Man Band CD - currently out of print.

Cassette release (remember those days?) with "The Roustabouts" - guitar, harmonica and washboard duo from the UK. Out of print right now but a CD compilation of Roustabouts live and recorded songs should be available soon.

My first ever recording, once again "The Roustabouts" - look for a compilation CD sometime soon.
