Notes: After Laura Boosinger's performance on "Old Time Banjo Festival" CD. Note the skips where you let your thumb drum on the head but don't strike a string. You can add more brushes if you like; but keep it quite lean.

Notes: My 4yo daughter has one of those electric mini pianos. I wanted to impress her a bit with my playing and also to practice some transcription skills and thus decided to arrange her favourite preset tune for banjo. It seemed perfect for some melodic banjo as it clearly seemed to be a fiddle melody. It also seemed so familiar but I didn't know the name. I asked a colleague who is a first violinist for a symphony orchestra and he thought it was a Scottish dance but didn't know the name either. Try googling a melody... Anyway, I eventually found out that the tune was called "Sailor's Hornpipe" or "The College Hornpipe" and in fact is a very popular fiddle tune. I guess I should feel stupid for not knowing...

Notes: This is a traditional Finnish polka that I transcribed from the playing of a 10 year old Finnish accordionist on YouTube (traditionally this tune is played in Cm/Fm, but to fit well within the range of the banjo I have dropped the pitch by a minor third to Am/Dm) This is a great tune, with very easy guitar chords. The banjo is tuned to G minor tuning [GDGBbD] and played with the capo on the second fret. The first three parts are in A minor and the fourth part is in D minor. Have fun!!

Notes: This is my first attempt to TAB out a tune using TablEdit Demo Version 2.65 which is limited to saving only 16 measures. I needed a TAB of Salty Dog Blues to help me practice my vamping using the E and A Chords and as I couldn't find anything suitable I tried my hand at creating my own. If you can improve on this I would be happy to see the results

Notes: Sandy Boys is a great old-timey tune associated with the playing of a renowned fiddler from West Virginia, Edden Hammons. But its origins are probably in the minstrel shows of the 19th century. I became familiar with the tune from a tab that Don Borchelt posted on his web page (http://www.banjr.com/tablatures.htm) some time ago, and I have since encountered it in jams. The version I have posted here is very much for the bluegrass banjo, with both Scruggs-ish and melodic elements.

Notes: This is fairly close to Bill Keith's rendition of the tune, recorded with Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys in 1963. It is played at a nice moderate tempo, not too rushed. Neil Rosenberg and Charles Wolfe's discography of Monroe states that Monroe learned a version of the tune from an old-time fiddler who lived in southern Indiana/northern Kentucky. It is close to the tune "I Don't Love Nobody," and you can find versions of the latter in the BHO tab archive.

Notes: Here's a lovely little gem from the great Eric Weissberg that I rediscovered recently on an old LP. It's a little wonky in spots, but that's what makes it such a fun tune to play.... I hope you like it - Skip.

Notes: This tune is in 6/8 time but it's relatively easy to play on the banjo. A guitar player friend of mine is always playing this song so I decided to get off my backside and learn it..----besides, it's fun and everyone (knows it if they are over the age of forty LOL) Hope you like it Lynn Williams

Notes: This song is from Bobby Hicks album "Texas Crapshooter" (available @ Amazon.com). The banjo break is very well put together, not too terribly hard to play and just fun to put under your fingers. Key of G capoed at the 2nd fret to put it in A.

Notes: I worked this tune out on my own, but oddly enough it feels like it could be a real tune. I think it would be excellent for beginners since there is an easy-to-learn "walkdown" consisting of a forward/reverse roll and barre chords.

Notes: This is my tab of Don Reno's fantastic break to "Shackles And Chains" as he recorded it on "Spice Of Life" with Bill Harrell in 1975. It's one of my favorite Reno breaks ever, and it's one of the best versions of the song anywhere. Key of A, Play open in A (No Capo) The best of luck to all of you!

Notes: Here's an old pop tune & jazz standard from the 20's, the "Sheik Of Araby" ("The Sheik"). Makes a great banjo and "jam" tune, not too complicated a progression and not a difficult melody, though it sounds really cool. Has a Rhythm Guitar & Bass rhythm track. Have fun!

Notes: Also known as "Shenandoah Valley Breakdown," this is a classic instrumental by Bill Monroe. He recorded it with Bill Keith on banjo in 1963, the version most of us are familiar with. However, there is a radio tape of Monroe playing on the Opry Jamboree from December 1958, with Joe Drumright on banjo, and rumor has it that Monroe had to phone Drumright to play it over the phone to teach it to Keith just before they recorded it in 63. A concert tape from 1977 of the Blue Grass Boys with Bill Holden playing a marvelous version on banjo is also floating around. My arrangement comprises two breaks and incorporates elements from these different players. The second break is a nifty melodic arrangement that is pretty similar to the way Bill Holden played it. Capo up 2 and play it in A.

I converted the Guitar Pro file to TablEdit, however everything didn't convert, such as section markers, chrords, repeats, etc. Updated the PDF file to correct error.

Notes: Play it nice and lazy. Easy tune, so maybe you should sing along? Lyrics: Short life of trouble A few more words to part Short life of trouble, dear girl For a boy with a broken heart Remember what you promised Not more than a week ago You promised that you'd marry me Standing in your mama's door * Refrain Now you've gone and left me I don't know what I'll do I'd give this world and half of my life Just to be married to you * Refrain Now you've broken your promise Go marry whom you may In this old world so big and so wide I'll ramble back some day * Refrain My right foot's on the platform My left foot's on the train I'm leaving you and this lonesome old town To never return again

Notes: This is an easy version of Shouting in Jerusalem. Mike Seeger plays this on his True Vine album and he based hes playing on Josh Thomas. Mike plays on a gourd banjo tuned down to three steps to E: eBEG#B. I think Josh Thomas paled a resonator banjo in standard G tuning. This is a simple arrangement, to some part based on Mike Seeger, but to most part my own ideas how to play a simpified Shouting In Jerusalem.

Notes: A rollicking melody! This arrangement is a simple adaptation for 3 finger style banjo from the version played by Bruce Molsky, Aly Bain, Jerry Douglas, Phil Cunningham, Russ Barenberg et al at the 'Transatlantic Sessions 4' at Celtic Connections in Feb 2009. It has a mixture of single string and melodic styles. I hope you enjoy it!

Notes: Here's the Yale Women's Slavic Chorus singing this at the Parents' Weekend concert in the fall of 2010. I was "there" for this, but as we were running late, I dropped off Madame and spent the next 45 minutes driving around New Haven looking for a parking spot, then running around campus asking for directions, finally dashing up just as everyone was leaving! http://youtu.be/4jV6rNuorxM

Notes: Tab with audio. Nice song by Sonny Osborne. I am unsure about the original key for this song. I have the casette album and it reproduces between B and C, probably due to tape deck speed not quite right. Needs a bit more work to get the timing right in places. A tricky piece to tab.

Notes: This is the version of "Silver Bell" played by Bela Fleck on the album "Fiddle Tunes for Banjo". It is just the banjo part. There is a low first solo and then right into the 'up the neck' break and then back down to a slight variation of the first part again, and then a quick tag ending. Be sure to listen to the recording to get the tempo, chords and the overall feel of the song in the proper context.

Notes: This is a simple backup technique for beginners. Alternate Thumb followed by a "pinch" using the Middle and Index fingers on first 2 strings. Alternately, you could follow thumb by pinching the 1st and 5th strings. This also works fairly well to accompany oneself singing easily.

Notes: Norton Greeop's classic tune (just in time for Halloween!). Not difficult but there are some Index-lead bits that are somewhat tricky and perhaps some unfamiliar chord positions. The A and B parts are in Cm, the Trio is in C and then there is a D part in F.

Notes: Sockeye is a wonderful banjo tune by Don Reno. I love its jubilant feel. I have tabbed two breaks. The first is a straightforward version of the tune that establishes the melody. Although it is by no means in Reno's inimitable style, it does include several licks reminiscent of his picking. The B part is built around a D lick from the playing of another of my favorite pickers, the great Don Stover. If you can grab this lick, you will find it useful in all sorts of tunes. The second break is considerably more interpretive, with some melodic and other elements. Pay particular attention to the timing of the D runs that involve melody notes on the higher strings with pivoting off the open fourth string.

Notes: I was messing around, playing fiddle tunes in the wrong keys, and I figured out that Soldier's Joy works very well in the key of "F". So here it is. Careful at jams :P Complete with Rhythm Guitar & Bass backup tracks. Uses a couple unorthodox techniques, such as "cross-picking" (crossing one right-hand finger over another) & dropping the middle finger inside. Have fun!

Notes: Here is a lovely straightforward version of the tune, played by the guy who wrote it, the noted songwriter Earl Scruggs. It is way less ornate than J. D. Crowe's versions (posted on BHO as well), and provides a nice contrast to J. D.'s take on the tune. If you want to learn to play Somehow Tonight, I suggest that you start with Earl's version and then move on to J. D.'s.

Notes: In my continuing quest to understand the genius of J. D. Crowe, I have tabbed two versions of one of his signature tunes, “Somehow Tonight,” written by Earl Scruggs – and who knew that the Scruggsmeister is a wordsmith? The first break is from Crowe’s recording with the Bluegrass Album Band (BGAB), the version most of us are familiar with. Note Crowe’s repeated use of multiple thumb strokes on the fourth string, a cardinal feature of his blues style. The second and third breaks are from Frank Godbey’s legendary recording of the New South at the Red Slipper Lounge of the Holiday Inn, Lexington KY, November 1974. I really prefer Crowe’s attack on this version of the tune. Note how his second break from 1974 ends with a blues riff that goes off in the ozone. I am not sure that I got it completely right, but it’s reasonably close.

Notes: This is my tab of Earl Scruggs' break to the Bob McDill penned "Song Of The South", which Earl recorded with Tom T. Hall on the LP "The Storyteller & The The Banjo Man", track 1. Earl uses standard tuning for his two breaks except he spikes the fifth string at 7, making an A note, which makes D fuller on the banjo when tuned this way. This song is also available on "The Essential Earl Scruggs" CD released on Columbia Records in 2004, which commemorated Earl's 80th birthday, and celebrated his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Good luck and have fun!

Notes: (Free PDF & TablEdit) Here is my arrangement of this old fiddle tune which is not very popular amongst Scruggs style banjo players. This is probably due to the fact that it's a bit tricky to play. The harmonic structure over the A chords implies an Em tonality which creates an interesting tension.

Notes: This has always been a favorite tune of mine. I heard fiddlers play it but seldom did I hear a banjo player attempting it - so I worked up my version. It is full of quirky right and left hand technique, but don't let that stop you! It is played in the key of D - G tuning with the capo at the 2nd fret and the 5th string spiked at A. This tune is played in part in a Scruggs style and in part with the melodic style.


This rendition, or at least most of it, can be heard in my recording of it I posted in my music. The last half of part B is tainted a bit with some improvisation but this will get you closer to the spirit of the tune and my personal style of playing.


Please let me know what you think.

Notes: Here is a tune that has stuck with me for over ten years now, and is a staple for me when I play at Old folks homes and such. On the fiddle I treat it as a ballad style, and on the Tenor Banjo more of a dance tune. I have heard many Irish bands play this tune at "sub-light speed", and then again have heard fiddlers play it quite slowly and sweetly. Hope you enjoy AJ

Notes: This great tune has been recorded most notably by Alison Krauss and John Denver. But I have heard this tune played by many bluegrass groups over the years with the most recent being a local group we watched at a restaurant a few days ago. Here is one of my breaks for the Key of G.

Notes: Straw Foot by 16horsepower/David Eugene Edwards. Based on David Eugene Edwards' solo performance found on youtube (link in tab). He plays a "thumb lead" style with index on bright D string and thumb for the rest. To get a feel of the song i suggest checking out youtube. It's really helpful in picking out small variations in the song, which I found too meticulous to put in the Tab. I haven't copyrighted the tab in any way, feel free to distribute, but be kind and put in a nice word for me if you do so ;) Enjoy!

Notes: Dock Boggs' "Sugar Baby", from his original 1927 recording. This was his first recording. Tuning is G-modal, though Dock uses it for the key of D. The guitar accompaniment is in D-major, which sounds really cool against the modal banjo melody. A very easy piece with only one short, simple roll. Literal tuning is f#C#F#BC#, which is G-modal (gDGCD) down a half-step.

Notes: "Sunflower Dance" is one of the American Banjo Fraternity's most common tunes. It was written by H. Rowland in the 1880's and originally titled "With The Tide Schottische". First recorded by Fred Van Eps in 1905 for Edison. Catchy tune!

Notes: Sushi is one of Kenny Baker's fiddle tunes, in 3 parts. It is fairly obscure, and as far as I know was recorded by Kenny only on a fiddle instruction video. I have tried to approximate the melody, for banjo, in a quasi-melodic arrangement.
