And of course, there are those occasional moments when there is layer upon
layer of incredible music pouring into the hall, and you look up and neither
of them are playing...they're talking about what to next through into the
mix...
And yes, I absolutely agree with Martha on their musicianship!
For a wonderful mini-documentary on how they make their music, check out:

I can also attest that on at least one waltz here in
St Louis, Ed played,
recording himself, then recorded himself playing harmony with the playback,
then played a third voice with the recording of the two harmonized parts.
That's three musicians. I don't think John was doing foot rhythms and
playing harmonica while he was playing guitar, but he could have been, so
that would be six.
And, just so we keep the record straight, it's not their "tricks" I love
them for. It's for their solid, terrific musicianship.

Given that they may be playing 4 instruments at
once, maybe ok to
count them as a band of 3?

discussion with them myself as a booking rep, and they
make a really good
