A while back I had a playlist that featured instruments that were cousins to the guitar: mandolins, slide & steel guitars, etc.. I thought it would be nice to add a second addition to this. New instrument inclusions are the banjo, Appalachian dulcimer, sitar and autoharp. These instruments add a nice touch & sound to these songs. And this is an eclectic song mix, too.
