Another tune from my Clifftop picking with BHO member Don Couchie, who plays just the kind of fiddle playing I like to hear. This was just plain great fun. The Paramount semi-fretless banjo is tuned to open A tuning (aEAC#E).

Everytime I hear something like this I am reminded what got that banjo in my hands to begin with. The upneck phrasing on the second go round is most pleasing as is the occasional mini bends . Just excellent. Elwood

I wish I had your talent Don. You have one great song after another.
This one in particular sounds like you are using a very light touch. It's almost intoxicating.

Mr. Borchelt, I can't tell you how often I go to the archive looking for examples of tunes with lots of likes and one of yours pops up. And for good reason, too! You got it going on.
