Leaving On A Jet Plane - UPGRADE....

eric@banjohangout.org — Fri, 6 Nov 2009 12:37:57 CST

This arrangement is now in the tab section here at the BHO. It's an absolutely gorgeous, Missouri fall day outside. I have to go cut some lumber into shelves for my kitchen cabinets. I swear...we would ALL be better banjo players if we spent our time perfecting our craft (hobby), instead of sitting inside on such a nice day...at a computer. Who invented these things anyway? I'm now thinking of mounting a "fifth string peg" on the side of my monitor... Maybe that'll fix it. Enjoy the new arrangement...and don't spend your whole weekend sitting at your computer! John Hartford wouldn't have done it! ;) Tom +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.banjotom2.com "I don't put on...I put out!"

Can anyone point me to the tabulature of Hank Jr. Mr. Lincoln. You really don't hear any Banjo Pickin until you get 2:48 minutes into the song. Thanks. Like a Dog, a Banjo just wants to be played with and cared for.

I heard a singer at a jam session singing and playing on the guitar "The Preacher and the Bear". I can't seem to find a 5 string banjo tab for this song. Where can I get a free print out? Phil - MO

Sweet song request

eric@banjohangout.org — Wed, 4 Nov 2009 22:24:02 CST

I just bought a Gold Tone banjola. It seems well suited to soft, sweet music. Can anyone suggest some slow, pretty songs/music? (No, I haven't changed teams, I just want to try something other than standard old time/bluegrass tunes) I prefer either open G or Sawmill tuning and nothing too complex since I have limited skills. I was thinking of starting with "Danny Boy". Any other ideas? It would be really great if you could refer me to a tablature source for any songs you might recommend. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Boogie On Roggae Woman

HEE HAW BUMPER TUNES

eric@banjohangout.org — Wed, 4 Nov 2009 17:57:10 CST

Just wondering if anyone has tried to tab the 4 tunes Bobby Thompson plays as background music on the show. The tunes were used to link segments of the show together. All of them were clever tunes that make you want to stop everything you are doing and learn them. Would they be copyright protected?

Bill Emerson tab

eric@banjohangout.org — Wed, 4 Nov 2009 12:36:23 CST

On the "Stelling Banjo Anthology', Bill has a couple of tunes that I really enjoy!! The first is "Ticket to Alvarado" and the second is "Little Juniata". If you don't have this CD, I highly recommend it. There are plenty of awesome tunes on it! Happy Pickin' IdahoSteve aka avarko Banjo: Prucha Legend Custom

Has anyone come across the Tab for Dave Matthews - Don't drink the Water? Here is a link to the youtube video.. It seems like it should be a fairly easy tab (just right for a beginner like me) [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMAnYUwIhk0[/url]

Woody Guthrie for beginners?

eric@banjohangout.org — Wed, 4 Nov 2009 02:15:47 CST

HI ! I'm a beginner, only playing since 4 months. I'm teaching mayself, because I'm living in Germany and in my town are no banjo teachers. I have some books, but my problem is that I don't know many songs, but I know dozens of songs of Woody Guthrie, so that I know how they should sound like. Does anybody have very easy tabs for songs like Going down the road feeling bad, pastures of plenty, oldtime religion etc? That would help me a lot. freakydays What's the result of teaching myself 5-string-banjo? neopsychedelic countrystyle, yellowsunshine purplegrass - who knows? I'm not a musician - I'm just a pickin' monkey!

eric@banjohangout.org — Tue, 3 Nov 2009 16:58:17 CST

Anyone got a tab for this? I had it in a book years ago, but I've long since lost track of the book. I really just need it for the part where it goes to E flat and the ending. I remember the rest. Thanks! "Old soldiers and old sailors have a place to go, but no one helps a railroad bum like poor old Hobo Joe".

Crazy Eyes - Old Crow Medicine Show

eric@banjohangout.org — Tue, 3 Nov 2009 11:46:12 CST

This arrangement has lyrics with a melody line (top stave), banjo back-up mixed with an occasional Scruggs style flourish (second stave). It also includes back-up on guitar, dobro, bass and percussion. I intentionally hid all but the top 2 banjo staves...it prints out 27 pages with all staves exposed, 6 pages with just the 2 top staves showing...so be warned! :) It is now uploaded to the tab section here at the BHO. Enjoy. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.banjotom2.com "I don't put on...I put out!"

Do Not Copy Songs From Published Books and post

eric@banjohangout.org — Tue, 3 Nov 2009 00:52:28 CST

Hi Dutchman, I know you mean well but your latest addition to the tab archives does exactly what is forbidden to do with regards to scanning any books for tabs such as you have with "Foggy Mt. Top". You will succeed in getting Eric's site into trouble with scanning published banjo books...Not a good practice...You even quote the exact page number... Jack Baker NYC Jack R.

Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger (Occasionally recognised as "I'm Not Sick But I'm Not Well") Does anyone know of tab for this song for a 5 string in Scruggs style? I've seen it played on YouTube but had no luck searching myself so far.

Rainbow Connection - Kermit

eric@banjohangout.org — Sun, 1 Nov 2009 19:32:27 CST

This arrangement has the banjo lick played by Kermit in the movie, all of the lyrics, and the melody line. But it is not a 'solo' in the true sense. The song is defined by the melody and the vocals with the banjo riff thrown in occasionally. This arrangement could still be used by someone wanting to sing the tune & throw the lick in occasionally...kind of a 'fakebook' arrangement to follow. It is now uploaded to the tab section of the BHO. I believe this arrangement has been requested of me more times than you could imagine. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.banjotom2.com "I don't put on...I put out!"

"Indian Hills" (New Grass Revival)

eric@banjohangout.org — Sun, 1 Nov 2009 02:07:34 CST

Does anyone have tabs to this? It is a fiddle-tuney type instrumental played uncapoed at Cm. It is from a slightly lesser known New Grass Revival album called "On The Boulevard." It was the first album to feature Bela Fleck and his solos on this tune are amazing!!! As far as I can tell, this is a very obscure (but oh SOOO wonderful) tune and I haven't found any tabs online. There is two breaks in this song, one more melodic and one free form, improv. style, I love both and I'll settle for either one I can get, even if its not 100% accurate. Mainly I just need a guideline to help me figure it out. If anyone can help me I'd appreciate it soo much. Thanks yall! Check out The River Bottom Rhythm Band!

Ommie, Let Your Bangs Hang Down (CH)

eric@banjohangout.org — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 06:44:47 CST

Hi all! I heard Ommie, Let Your Bangs Hang Down for the first time today, a version by Gaither Carlton, and it took my breath away. It's a catchy one! While a tab would be lovely, I'd be grateful for just the chords and the tuning used - I spose it's best that I have a whirl at working it out. If it gets too tricky, I could always peek at a tab. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Does anyone have a melodic tab to "I Know You Rider?" It's a fun song to play. I've been learning melodics and in the right places they can really dress up a tune. Surprized to not even find a tab period for it in our archives. just lookin for ideas.

anybody know the name of this song?

All I have are the lyrics. Does anybody know the name of this song or have the tab? Goin’ down the track with a chicken on my back, Soles on my shoes are almost gone A little ways ahead there’s an old farmer’s shed And that’s where I’ll rest my weary bones. Weary bones, Weary bones, That’s where I’ll rest my weary bones. A little ways ahead there’s an old farmer’s shed That’s where I’ll rest my weary bones. Git it, Bugger! Goin’ down the track with a chicken on my back, Soles on my shoes are almost gone A little ways ahead there’s an old farmer’s shed And that’s where I’ll rest my weary bones. Weary bones, Weary bones, That’s where I’ll rest my weary bones. A little ways ahead there’s an old farmer’s shed That’s where I’ll rest my weary bones.

Looking for a Bob Carlin tab (CH)

eric@banjohangout.org — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:42:41 CST

I bought, several years ago, the 2 volume set of Bob Carlin's "Learn to Play Clawhammer Banjo" or a similar name, VCR instruction tapes. 2 or 3 years later, I gave it to somebody who was gathering CH stuff to send to our soldiers in Iraq. So, now I have been playing the tune "Liberty" based on what I got off of the tabs with these tapes, but I seem to have changed the B part significantly - to the point I'm not sure if I'm playing "Liberty" or some variation of "Needlecase." So, if anybody has the tab booklets from these tapes still lying around their place, I'd like to see about getting copies of them for my own use and memory refresh. You can contact me via PM. And thanks for your help.
