Here's the version of Bluegrass Breakdown that is taught on Murphy Henry's DVD's.

I would recommend these DVD's to anyone who is teaching themselves to play the banjo. This was recorded after 8 months of playing the banjo and it is the exact version she teaches. No crazy variations in it or anything like that, but still a pretty cool version!

One of my favorite old Gospel Tune. Singing dont do it justice. On the old 26 conversion with the cheater bar strapped to the 3rd fret.

This is the arrangement from my new Mel Bay book "The Best of Jack Hatfield" It demonstrates pedal point technique in the third solo.

What a great tune.

Figured since I had all these instruments in the house I might as well put them to use! Never was quite happy with the banjo tone, and still need to record the mano break but I got tired of messing with it!
