Notes: (Version 2019.01.11f). I transcribed this using a combination of the studio recording and various live performances of Tony, particularly https://youtu.be/XrHAxCAfzi8. Thanks to Rich Stillman (waystation) for his feedback!

Notes: Gordon Stone was my first banjo hero, after hearing his work with Phish during the early 90s. This song, with all it's fun dominant progressions, always made me smile, and I unknowingly learned and transcribed it the same day he passed away (Jul 12, 2020). I only hope he is smiling down as I play it. RIP Gordon! (I also added a bass line arrangement to the TablEdit file for accompaniment.)

Notes: From the The Osborne Brother's 1973 Ru-be eee release. https://youtu.be/BGqclVqpXm8. I love Sonny's latin syncopation in this song! The song is originally in B, with a capo on the 4th and 9th frets, but the transcription is in open G. I also added backing guitar and bass tracks to the TablEdit file.

Notes: A beautiful song written (I think) by Adam Cloer that he performed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAacAn310no. Here is my arrangment with a few tasty bits added that my "inner ear" was hearing. (Latest version: v.2020.09.28d)
