I had just had a pickup installed in my banjo, and I wanted to try it out. I plugged it in to a little amp with a lot of distortion and echo, and cranked up the volume, and then played along with a drum machine in an electric piano. I was astounded at the sounds coming out of my banjo...so I recorded it. This song has words, but I was playing it too fast, and too erratically to sing. I was just enjoying the sensation of of hearing my old-timey sound totally transformed.
