Gentlemen: whenever you see a great big overgrown buck sitting at the mouth of some holler, or at the forks of some road, with a big slouch hat on, a blue celluloid collar, a celluloid, artificial red rose in his coat lapel, a banjo strung across his breast, and a-pickin' of Sourwood Mountain, fine that man, gentlemen, fine him! For if he hasn't already done something, he's a-going to - Josiah Combs, quoted in Old-Time Mountain Banjo

I didn't know who Zane was before I read this article, but the writer calls him "country music royalty."

Whether or not you agree, this is a good read for several reasons. And there's a photo of one of the most beat-up Martins I've ever seen in my born days.

Thanks for the post, Lindy. It's an interesting article. I think "royalty" refers to his being Ola Belle Reed's nephew. I agree--that's one beat up Martin.

Thays pretty darn cool.  I used to live in neighboring Harford County, Md. and met Bud at a show I did once.  This Zane sounds like a real character--my kind of guy.
