Genre: Bluegrass / Playing Style: Clawhammer and Old-Time
I posted another Tommy Jackson tune unknowingly the other day..."Snowflake Reel". JanetB was kind enough to give me some background on the tune and add a very nice clawhammer arrangement. This led to us trading messages about a collaberation of another Jackson tune. It was a bit different for us both. Not too bad for a first time collab...she plays the cello banjo and gracefully states the melody and I come in later like an overexcited 2nd time beginner ('cause it's what I am!) and barrel through the changes again with Janet's accompaniment. My ending is a little exaggerated, but it was good fun, and I hope to do another soon. Thanks Janet for your nice playing and your use of the garage band software.

Very fun to collaborate with you, Greg. I'm going to try it once more on my small scale banjo and hope to improve as I get more familiar with the tune. Tommy Jackson was an incredible fiddler who influenced lots of other fiddlers. You've chosen a challenging master musician, but you have lots of talent to rely on and you're sure a fast learner!

Thanks Janet. I feel kinda like a sponge trying to soak up all this good stuff. I told someone the other day I would have been a lot better off if I'd stuck with banjo the first time around. Looking forward to the next chapter though.
