Wow nice! I especially like the first Song in the medley. now I have to try to figure it out. I wish we had good music stores around here, where you can just pick a reiter or Enoch banjo off the wall to try it out. Just the usual student banjos in all our stores.

Very nice playing. It sounds like old trovatore music from the time of knights in Europe.
I love it!

Sounds great as you would expect from mike!

Mike really gets great tone from his banjos.  He is a very creative player too.

Wow! That was great. I am working my way through his tabs on his website. As a beginner clawhammer player, I have really appreciated his site.

 My thoughts excatly, i could imagine myself sat round a medieval banquet table or at a festival listening to that.



Beautiful playing.

I'm constantly amazed at how many at how many excellent original banjo tunes are being composed by amateur and semi-professional players.

I wonder how many, if any of these pieces will have slipped into "tradition" say, 20 years from now and if the the composer will be relegated to anonymous status.

Will the internet contribibute to their folk process dissemination, or provide a means of unofficial copywrite?

I always wonder when I play a good traditional banjo or fiddle tune where and from whom it originated and how the title came into being. Some are obvious, some mysterious.
