Key of A and played on a vintage (circa 1930's) short scale 5 string with bare fingers in old time two finger style.
A song we used to play with the Rough & Ready Fruit Jar Pickers. Here's the 3-finger solo I worked out at the time.
(gCGCE)
Here's a modern, pretty, rather crooked tune from North Carolina. The key is G, but I used gDGBE tuning to facilitate ease of fingering.
From a biblical story
Key of A and played on a conversion banjo. Vintage pot and a new neck.
James Bryan, Alabama fiddler, recorded Rabbit in the Grass on a very early album, Lookout Blues, as a medley with two other Mack Blalock tunes, the most well-known being Farewell to Trion.
We started a playing group in the Ward De Beer Music ateljeee in Antwerp Belgium. This is one of the tunes we work on.
We have a great presenter from the state of Ohio, who noted that we don't have that state represented in our many tunes for Tune of the Week. This tune comes from Estil Adams who lived in Washington Court House, an actual city with the longest name in Ohio!
Saturday, October 21,2023 ?Last Sunday, as I was preparing to sing with the youth at Gwynedd Friends Meeting, I asked the teacher what the lesson was for today. He told me that they were going to learn about Indigenous People's Day. I looked through the list of songs that I'd been singing with them, for the past 30 years or so and thought, that of all of them, "This Land is Your Land" would fit. However, I decided to change just a few words that were too specific to the European immigrants and make the song more about all who live on the earth, animals, plants, birds, insects and all other organisms. This land was made for them all to live on this finite planet Earth. Banjo: aEAc#e
Another arrangement of Orvetta Waltz using open G tuning rather than double C. I jump octaves to stay true to the melody.
