Marshall Brickman(1939-2024)

Was a member of the folk trio The Tarriers in the late 1950s, with Eric Weissberg and Alan Arkin. He played bluegrass guitar on the 1963 album "New Dimensions in Banjo and Bluegrass" with Weissberg; this was later reissued as "Dueling Banjos", a pseudo-soundtrack album for Defensa (1972) (the title track was the only piece that was actually used in the film).

Three things that people always tell you about the movie business: "You can fix it in the editing room; it doesn't matter what the critics say; and there's German money". You can NEVER fix it in the editing, it DOES matter what the critics say, and there's NO SUCH THING as German money.
