The album, Southern Filibuster: A Tribute To Tut Taylor, is the brainchild of celebrated resonator guitarist Jerry Douglas, who produced and recorded this project as a surprise to Taylor, one of the early innovators of the instrument in bluegrass and acoustic country music. Douglas assembled 14 of the top reso players on the scene and knocked this out before word could sneak out.
Tut Taylor has been an active musician since the 1960s, reaching some notoriety with John Hartford as a part of his Areo-Plain Band along with Norman Blake. His reso style was unique in that he played with a flatpick, unlike the more common fingstyle approach. Tut has since been known as an instrument dealer and craftsman as well, having been instrumental in the development of the Tut Taylor model reso guitars built by Crafters Of Tennessee.
