Learned from Kenny Baker's version with Bill Monroe. Boy, he sure put in a lot of notes! God bless him.

Thanks, Ken. In bluegrass nobody could beat him, but Stuart Duncan sure comes close! |

Nice Janet, never heard that tune before. Sounded real good. Mind me asking what kind of banjo you're playin? |

Monroe recorded it in 1975 with Kenny Baker fiddling and Bob Black on banjo. I'm not sure about my banjo. I can just hear my mom chiding me again to write the names of people on the back of photos. I need to write which banjo I'm using. I think it was the open back Bart Reiter, since I recorded that clawhammer style. |

Really well played! This is a great example of the type of old time banjo arrangement of a Kenny Baker tune that I would hope to come up with. Interesting how Kenny's tunes sound both new and familiar all at once.

Thanks, Don. I also play it 3-finger picking, but it likes to be clawhammered with double C tuning. There's more Kenny Baker songs out there waiting for me! |
