Banjo Hangout Newest 100 Bluegrass (Scruggs) Songs

Some banjo and electric guitar jamming

Wrote this simple waltz a few years back.

Since 蝪" is written about as a significant number in various sermons and horror movies and such as the Devil's number, I figured that the dark cold hour of 3:33 would be a fine time to set a scene for a conversation, real or imagined, between a bitter drunk and the Devil. Had a bit of trouble getting the song INTO the computer. (The original was lost in a previous crash, but my nephew had a copy, but not in a format BHO would accept. So it went from that format, to a disc, and was played out of one computer, through speakers, into a microphone, down a wire to an amplifier, out that into another a microphone, and into a second computer, to make an MP3 file.)

Just a quick sound bite of my banjer with a Rogers 3 Star hide head. Nice full rich tone when it's in your lap. iPhone 6 is my recorder.

Think it was the tempo and notes from around :19 to :30 that suggested the title. Whatever. In Double C.
