Just a week or so after Bill Keith left Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys, he visited Donnie Bryant at his home in Washington, DC. Donnie asked him to show him a few tunes on banjo and got out his reel to reel recorder. Unfortunately, the recorder was stopped between each song. This may be the only known recordings of Bill Keith playing 'Mr Sandman' and his arrangement of 'Yankee Doodle' and 'Dixieland' (simultaneously). ------------- Don Bryant played banjo for Mac Wiseman for years. He also did a 4-month stint with Flatt and Scruggs, playing banjo when Earl broke his arm in a car accident in 1955.
