About this album

A landmark bluegrass soundtrack, Dueling Banjos From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Deliverance And Additional Music is inseparable from the film that made it famous. Released in 1973, the album centres on Eric Weissberg and Steve Mandell’s instantly recognisable guitar-and-banjo duet ‘Dueling Banjos’, a piece that became one of the era’s most familiar instrumental themes. Built around traditional fiddle and banjo numbers alongside the score’s signature tune, the record helped bring bluegrass to a mainstream audience through Deliverance’s cultural impact. Its mix of Appalachian roots music and film association gives it lasting historical weight beyond the soundtrack format.
