This morning I was trying to learn some songs in D tuning. Then I started to loose my concentration and began doodling.
I think this has possibilities. It is all my own creation and for me represents a giant step although it is rough and definately a work in progress.

This is something I am working on. I haven't ironed out the lyrics yet. This tune sounds vaguely familiar to me, so if you can identify it please do so.
It is played on the 1920's Supertone Ragtime King #407 I recently acquired.

Our kitty got himself in a bind a couple of weeks ago. So I wrote a song about it. It is sung to the tune of Groundhog.

Was just goofing around last night and decided to record a track of each banjo for comparing them, The first two are the two I play the most. I had trouble with the bakelite one as the fingerboard is narrower. The tune is Old Moll Hare, OK, so I committed the worst crime in the world of banjos - played CH on resonator banjos. I was going to take the resonators off, but it was getting late.

I am trying to learn up picking here. This is my first song in that style, and still needs a lot of work. I'm having fun though.

Everyone has to do this one. It's like an initiation rite or something.
This is on Sleeping Beauty - my mahogany openback.

My tuner went out, and I know this is tuned lower than D. But I wanted to post something new on the mahogany lined aluminum rim banjo. It has developed a pinging on the 5th string - the nut there I'm pretty sure - or else the bridge. I figure it out sooner or later. This is a bit bluesy, and is one of the things I'm working on.

After the ice cream truck went by playing this jingle I couldn't erase it from my brain.
This was recorded once, nipped a bit for timing and then copied and pasted. It was three tracks, coming in at different times. It is a challenge for timing.

I was going through my old music books this morning and looking at some of the songs that I use to play on my guitar. they aren't tabbed out so I've been playing by ear.
I always liked the melody on this. I know it needs more work, but I hope you enjoy it.

Forgot my fingerpicks today but was determined to take the BIG step. Played with only a thumbpick and is not my best, but not my worst.

I've been working on this as an exercise in chord transitions. I still have trouble hitting that B chord, but am improving

I have a cold, but that didn't stop me from singing. This is one of the first songs i learned back in the early ླ'68;'s. I played it on mandolin and guitar back then and thought it was way past time for banjo.

I've been fooling around with tunings and noticed that Sleeping Beauty sounded different when tuned to open C. So, I recorded it both in the open C and standard G tunings.

Another doodle. This is played on Sleeping Beauty this morning. It was very early and cold. The banjo was tuned to f#BF#BD, and as Hubby was sleeping - muted.
