Act Two (The Seldom Scene album)
1973 studio album by The Seldom Scene
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Act Two is the second album by American progressive bluegrass band The Seldom Scene. The band continues to benefit from all their trademarks: John Starling folkie lead vocals blend with high tenors of John Duffey, completed with Mike Auldridge's third vocals and Dobro solos, plus all that strengthened by Tom Gray's solid bass playing, not to forget Ben Eldridge's banjo and John Duffey's mandolin fancy licks.[2] [3]
