Drone Folk

A lengthy improvisation flatpicked on the 5 string, with lots of octave work.

Peter Seeger wrote this pretty tune for the 12 string guitar sometime back in the 50's or 60's. Leo Kottke played and recorded an 'over the top' long version and it has more recently been covered by the pianist George Winston. This is my melodic style banjo version.

traditional blues / jazz

This is a cool tune by Don Reno. i just learned it so its a little rough. Just got some recording software and an interface and was playing with it and this is this first tune i recorded with it. Includes my buddy Jim on the Guitar and Bass.

Waiting For The Sunrise

Bells of St Marys, i am trying to play it like Don Reno did it.

Just a test, messing around with octave riffs and chord punches on my Deering with flatpick and fingers.
