"Cascade Creek" is a banjo instrumental that my brother
Dwight and I wrote. It's mostly his tune- I wrote the bridge
part. He wrote it in the early 80's and I wrote the bridge in
the late 80's I think it was. It's named after a creek that
runs through the town of Cascade, Colorado that's up in
the mountains just outside of Colorado Springs. We'd stay
some summers there during our College days back then.
There was a pretty good bluegrass scene around there and
we both took up the banjo a bit. I've got a couple of takes
of "Cascade Creek" at YouTube that are linked below here,
one that also has a mandolin and guitar part.
