Notes: I don't play banjo, but I made a solo guitar arrangement of the Bela Fleck banjo (/Jerry Douglas dobro) tune Another Morning. I had seen requests for 'Another Morning Part B' on the forums here, so I thought I'd post the TEF file. ( I'm hoping some kind and more experienced member could easily use Tabledit to cut and paste over to appropriately tuned banjo and clean up, since I'd have no idea! )
For "part B" of this tune, Bela does a variety of counter-melodies/rhythms behind the dobro, which carries the main melody +/- 'chords'. I made a solo guitar practice arrangement
~ capturing the total effect, most of the banjo, and the dobro accent/sustain where needed. I think I captured all the main melodic/rhythmic motifs Bela uses, which can be combined in endless ways over the basic chords/rhythm. I think my arrangement is essentially 'Scruggs-style' rolls, mostly w/a low-profile bassline below, and occasionally more typical 'guitar strum' chords (kind of approximating banjo/bass/'chop' trio).
EDIT (8/04/2011): updated w/better approximation of dobro slide @ end of intro.

Love the arrangement. Really captures the melody. To be honest, I've been playing more fingerstyle guitar than banjo as of late. Thanks for the transcript.
