Wow! That is great. My girlfriend was listening too. She said, "What a cute song". So now, I gotta learn that one. Hope I can play it as nice as BanjoBert!

Thank you, Miss Judy! It's a fun, pretty little tune, isn't it? It still needs some work, but I wanted to get it posted using the Little Maggie fingerpicks! Between the picks and the Bishline, they combine for a pretty good tone, don't they? :-)

That is great fun! Who could imagine a few years ago that we could cooperate like this across the Atlantic. Keep up the good work and feel free to use mye other backing tracks as well. Actually, I will be playing Bill Cheatham on banjo in a concert my band is having this saturday. I play the arrangement from the "All Star Bluegrass Jam Along" series.

Yes, it's amazing, isn't it, Erik? Thank you! I would like to hear your arrangement some time!

Hey Spook,
Just listened to Bill Cheatham...I need to learn this one! It comes up in jams sometimes and I don't know it. Really like your version. Great job!

Howdy, ABC.
Thanks! It's really mostly, if not all Rob's arrangement, as you might have guessed, but I agree it's a good one! We didn't tab it out, but it's reasonably easily learned by ear, I think. We can talk about it!
Spook
