Got the idea from our fiddle player, Alex Thomlinson, to work this one up for Christmas gigs. Here it is, warts & all.

Wonderful. Very elegantly done and still heartfelt. I've always been partial to the combination of banjo and finger style guitar, and this is a really nice example of how great the two can sound together.

This is great. I would not have believed that Greensleeves could sound so nice on a banjo.

O, wow, the harmonization or re-harmonization of this tune is just lovely, beyond language. What a gorgeous arrangement and natural approach. The tuning and chords are simply scumptious! And it sounds good too!
