I learned this tune from BHO member Rob Jones' Youtube video and Miles Krassen's book "Clawhammer banjo". BHO member Robert Lanham's recording based on the tablature from the book also helped me a lot on this tune. Thank you, Rod, Bob.

Nice rhythm, well played! It sounds like West Virginia is really from your neck of the woods. Ho, Kit and I are impressed with your excellent command of English and are curious about what kind of work you do when you're not playing the banjo.

Very well played. I've not heard that third part before, neat.

Very good, clean picking, and like the others have said, the timing is rock-solid! I'm glad my Miles Krassen MP3 recording was a help. I agree with you that Rob Jones' rendition is superb.

Somebody might know, this is the same tune as Arkansas Sheik, isn't it? Anyhow, great picking.

Nice playing Ho! Articulate melody and steady rhythm... the kind of straight forward banjo picking
I like to hear when I'm playing the fiddle in a jam.
