Re: best multi-instrumentalists

Best multi-instrumentalist I've seen is probably Mike Marshall, 
but nobody here knows who that is.  Great mandolin player, very 
good guitarist, very good fiddler, plays mandola and mandocello. 
 Plays material ranging from straight bluegrass, through jazz 
grass (eg, late 70s Grisman group, Psychograss), classical (see 
work with Edgar Meyer), Brazilian, I've even seen him doing 
Indo-jazz fusion.
