Banjo Hangout eric@banjohangout.org eric@banjohangout.org Joseph Kosma Joseph Kosma http://www.banjohangout.org/song/26813 I just improvised a banjo version of the jazz standard (without fingerpicks to get a mellower sound), and then added electric bass afterwards. It is kind of sloppy, and I mainly don&#39t play jazz on the banjo, but thought I would put it out there anyway. I did record it without click track or any ProTools &#34fixing&#34 (so maybe that could be a consideration against it being judged too harshly for the sloppyness factor). For some really great jazz banjo (in a traditional bop oriented style), listen to Tom Slavicek. Some of his tunes are posted at Andrew Conde&#39s hangout page.

I've always loved Vince Guaraldi's version that was featured in Charlie Browns Christmas cartoon. This one has 5 banjos and I used a Keyboard cleaning brush, on the banjo head, to get the brushed sounds from the original recording,haha. Add a bass banjo track with the tuning dropped 3 whole steps and you get a pretty nice sounding bass string,haha. This was a fun project . Heres my banjo take on the Christmas favorite.

But my jazzy solo in the middle is my own..good or bad,haha. I snuck in a hook riff from a 007 movie for laughs. This has rhythm banjo, two brushed banjos,banjo ornaments,banjo solo and bass banjo. I hope you like it. Heres my 6 banjo version. I matched the tempo and the arrangement as closely as I could. But my jazzy solo in the middle is my own..good or bad,haha.
