This is a wellknown folk song that has been popular also in Sweden. This was the very first tune I learned by myself in 1968 (I worked out a twofinger thumb lead version). Here I play it in thumb lead in A-tuning.

Clawhammer in double D tuning. This is my first recording and I had some problems with the softwar before I managed to get it down.

Played in sawmill tuning on my old unbranded Asian banjo with a homemade bridge. I play it thumb lead, in the end I try the B part in index lead but with a little abrupt ending....

This is a temporary upload for the tune of the week. I learned Skillet Good And Greasy All The Time from this recording by Bob Siggins on the Electra Album Old Time Banjo Project EKS-7276. The whole album can be uploaded here: https://www.downhomeradioshow.com/2010/09/elektra-old-time-banjo-project-lp/ and contains a lot of good Old-Time banjo music from the 1960's.

I first learned this tune in clawhammer style from Art Rosenbaum's book, but I made two-finger thumb lead of it. A tuning.

This is another homemade train song, related to the family of Reuben's Train, 500 miles, 800 miles, 900 miles, Train 45 and so on. I play it in G modal with sawmill tuning. Straight thumb lead style. This song is dedicated to the commuter train I travel with today (Södertäljependeln). In the full version there is a lot of unplanned stops, irregular speed, and noise but I excluded these parts on this recording.
