Bill and David have been friends since the early 60s and have performed and recorded together several times. David has always been my favourite mandolin player. Getting to meet him and talk about our mutual friend and hero, Bill Keith, was a dream come true.
Apart from Bill, we also talked about other musicians, including Tony Rice, Stephane Grappelli, Svend Asmussen, and more.
I helped Pete Wernick by translating his banjo workshop into French at the La Roche Bluegrass Festival in France. Afterwards, as we were chatting, the topic shifted to Bill Keith. Pete was kind enough to let me record this.
