I re-encoded this, as it was playing very slowly here on BHO. I was paying around with some chord substitutions in the B part, and this is what came out.

This is the recording that I made for Craig Evans's interview of Mike Ramsey for his "Conversations with North American Banjo Builders" DVD. Some very kind and flattering things were said about it here on BHO ( http://www.banjohangout.org/topic/234384 ), which made me realize I had never done anything with it. So... I am posting it here now. It was played on my Ramsey Fairbanks Electric (the prototype for the model) in aCGCD capoed 2 to become aDADE.

A 3-part version played here on an Enoch Cherry Tradesman that was half fretted, i.e., fretless to the 5th fret, and then fretted up to the scoop.

A tune I learned from A.C. Overton. This same recording played way too slowly when I first uploaded it to BHO. This is the right speed!

Played on a used Gold Tone EBT, an electric banjo with a solid, Telecaster-style body, and thought that something like this needs an old-time, clawhammer tune played acoustically on it! Capoed to aEAC#E. August 2004.

3/4 to 4/4 switch. Tuned aDGCD, and I played the tune in Bm on my Ramsey Woody prototype. I think. January 2004.

Recorded on an a 1926 Vega Style N tenor to which someone added a 5th string! It has a really soggy skin head, and real cheapie bridge. But I like the short scale and dead sound.

I learned this from the fiddler in our band in the 1970s, and promptly forgot the tune entirely. Believe it or not, about 30 years later I found myself whistling this tune while I was driving, and said: "Wow! I think I just remembered Magpie!". Well, I checked it out, and I had... Anyway, I played it here on my old stand-by Ramsey prototype Fairbanks Electric. I'm tuned capoed to double D (aDADE), but playing in G. Sep 2006.

Another that played at 2/3 speed here for some reason, so I have re-encoded it. Recorded in January 2005 on a gourd banjo that Jeff Menzies built I just tuned it to sound good--came out something near gbBGbBDb.

Yet another one that was playing way too slowly here... This recording contains a nod to my good friend "Bluehammer" Mark Johnson!

recorded 29 Jul 09 on my wife's pink Goodtime. This recording was added as the soundtrack to the video I made of its being played. I had known this tune forever, but I had never, ever played it, AFAIK until it was selected as the "Tune of the Week." I finally decided I ought to know it! :-)

I heard this tune fiddled on John Salmon's wonderful Sugar in the Gourd, and decided it should be a banjo tune!

The first MP3 I ever did. In 2002, a student asked me to record this for him, and I shared it on BANJO-L.

A 2004 recording I did because the tune was stuck in my head. I have uploaded it now, in 2012, as an example of my brushing and non-brushing in a tune. Played on my Ramsey Electric. aCGCD capoed to become aDADE.

This is a clawhammer version of the tune, played on a three-string, diatonically fretted, LicketySplit brand banjo. I recorded this as a demo when we sold these in the shop. I think it was recorded ca. 2003.
