Notes: BtFM is a neat tune by Johnny Warren and Charlie Cushman, from their album "Purely Instrumental." Charlie Cushman is one of the foremost current practitioners of driving Scruggs-style banjo, and in my opinion he captures Scruggs’s nuances, touch, and tone as well as anybody (and better than most). The tab is not strictly faithful to his version, although I did try to render parts of it note-for-note.

Notes: This is my arrangement for 5-string banjo on the cool Instrumental "Manzanita" by Tony Rice. This includes the basic building blocks of the tune, including the backup chords ... feel free to take it and run with it :)

Notes: Fell in love with this song on Michael Cleveland's Tall Fiddler album. Took a shot at making my own tab. Love tuning my banjo down to E to play it.

Notes: A BHO thread popped up about wanting ideas for playing this tune in the Key of D. So here is an idea for the intro only, playing in open G tuning.

Notes: This tab is based on Rhiannon Giddens version where she plays a minstrel banjo in low D tuning (dADF#A). This tuning has the same intervals as open G tuning (gDGBD), so the tab will work for that tuning also. The tab is based on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moGDevGfmp0

Notes: In response to a beginner's discussion asking about roll patterns for the Pogues' version of DIrty Old Town, I spent time with headphones and tabbed out a version as close as I can come to what I hear. Sometimes hard to hear notes in backup. This is close enough to get a beginner started.
Note: TablEdit's syncopation setting doesn't really capture the feel. Listen to the recording here for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pupVjQBwASo

Notes: Great break from Cody Looper, who throws in many nasty blues licks, the one at the end on the F chord being especially epic. It's quite difficult to do at the speed in the video. This is as good as it gets in my opinion.

Notes: This is the TAB for Sugar Maple by Noam Pikelny. Noam Pikelny himself has said (via a video exchange on Artistworks) that the TAB is 100% correct apart from a few "open D' notes that have been tabbed as "to be played". He designates them "rhythmic ghost notes".
Anyway, this took me a long time to TAB so I hope you enjoy it. Ben

Notes: I found a PDF posted on BHO by BTS on 3/19. I simply TABLEDITed it. It is a great way to start a classic fiddle tune.
