Paul Breen on guitar, Christine on Banjo. Key of G - TOTW 4/09/2011. Played on a Phippsburg Banjo - all nylgut strings. This is one of the low end Phippsburg model banjos made back in the 80's by Banjo Billy Mathews. The banjo was originally purchased by Dave Landreth for a student of his in Springfield, IL and I was lucky enough to find it when the student decided to sell a few years ago!

Christine Breen Banjo. Played on my new-old JB Schall orchestra banjo, 28" scale length. Skin head, Nylgut Minstrel strings. I got this tune from Billy Mathews. He's pretty sure he remembers hearing this one from Dan Gellert.

Billy Mathews Fiddle Christine Banjo. I first heard this tune from a clip posted from a dance in Southern Illinois, now I can't find that clip. Anyway I loved the title and the tune. Last weekend I was in Springfield, MO for a Heritage Day Festival and Billy Mathews and I sat down and played some tunes. Being a festival there is some background noise from vehicles and such. I really enjoy this tune and hope you do to.

Written by Dawn Petty. Played by Fiddlin' Banjo Billy Mathews on a vintage tango banjo strung up with only four strings he has had for many years. I am playing back-up on a Phippsburg 5-string banjo. My five string is tuned to classic C (GCGBD). I fell in love with this waltz that Dawn wrote in the 1990's. Hope you enjoy and waltz on! Permission by the High Plains Publishing Company and Dawn Petty.

Original tune written and played by Billy Mathews. This is one of 17 original tunes from his CD "Ghost of Banjo Billy" www.banjobilly.net
Some day when I grow up to be a banjo player I really do want to be able to play as great as Billy.
Enjoy!

Christine Breen Banjo. Played on my new-old Lyon Healy Mystic in GCGCD. I like to play in this tuning even though the tune is played in D normally. Billy Mathews taught me this tune on his visit to my town July 2008.
