Tommy Thompson was a banjo player, writer, actor, teacher and
thinker. He arrived in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in the early
1960s smitten by folk and traditional Appalachian music. In 1972,
he teamed up with Bill Hicks and Jim Watson to form the
nontraditional string band the Red Clay Ramblers. Mike Craver, Jack
Herrick, Clay Buckner, Bland Simpson and Chris Frank would
eventually join them. Using interviews and writings from Thompson
and his loved ones, the author presents to us a life that revolved
around music and creativity. Included are appendices on Thompson's
banjos, a discography and notes on his collaborative lyric writing.
