Did some digging on the history of this banjo tune. Hope you like it!
Planning to make some more of these, Lord willing.

That sounded great. I hope to be able to tackle that one day.

That’s always been a cool song, especially when there’s several banjos in the jam & they all play it differently! Never knew the history though, enjoyed it! And Nice Picking

@Michael_Mark I haven’t played that one in a long while. So after all that digging what did you find?

You can do it man! A lot of the licks are similar to licks in G tuning, I think.
So glad to hear you learned something!
Thanks! The opportunities for dynamics are probably my favorite part of this tune.
The full story is in the captions of the video. If they’re not available for some reason, let me know and I’ll post the transcript here.
