World Turning is a studio album orchestrated by banjo player Tony Trischka. Genres vary wildly as do performers for each track. The title track of the album is a cover version of "World Turning", a song by Fleetwood Mac.
Trishka's claim to fame, supposedly, is that he taught banjo to Bela Fleck. Fleck, oddly enough, is conspicuous by his absence on this guest-heavy release which features appearances by Alison Krauss, Syd Straw, all three Violent Femmes, members of R.E.M., and William S. Burroughs.
