"From the very start, "Rooster" Rick Jackofsky held the crowd's attention with his natural storytelling ability and encyclopedic knowledge of the history of American roots music . . . One of the many stickers that adorn Jackofsky's well-traveled banjo case is a quote from Jimi Hendrix: "Knowledge speaks but wisdom listens." And, people listened intently." -Rose Croke, The Pearl River Patch
The print version of Rick's banjo book "Ragged but Right" is available at live shows & by mail, you can also download the Kindle version from the infinite shelves of Amazon.com.
