  • Here's fun tune! I remember learning this one when I was kid, but it still comes up from time to time in different jams. It's a great old standard that you really ought to know. Take your time...
    Yes.. I know, it took about the whole dadgummed video for me to figure out where I should have been looking. Sorry about that.

    Hey Jim, thank you for everything you’ve done so far. I’ve always struggled with anxiety and meeting new people has always been hard but now that I can play the banjo all I have to do is sit outside and pick a little and people come up and talk to me about it. It has taken my anxiety away and I have made many new friends. I love you, keep doing what you’re doing.

    Yet another tune that you play at a medium lick, and I think "no way!"
    But when you break it down into bite sized chunks it all magically becomes doable.
    You have a rare gift Mr Pankey

    Hey Jim, I’m 15 and I just recently bought the banjo in March. I’ve been practicing everyday for at least 30 minutes, and your videos are a tremendous help. It’s more difficult to find videos on the banjo compared to more popular instruments like the guitar or the piano. I have grown to love the banjo every day, and I would like to say thanks. Keep up you good videos!!!

    • @JimPankey

    Hey Jim. Like some others, I have pulled my banjo back out after about 20 years ( been working more on guitar and penny whistle). Back then I was able to get through many of the standard beginner tunes and now that I got it back out it is slowly coming back to me. I bought my first banjo when I was about 18. Now I am 59 and I wish I had of stuck with it all those years. Your lessons are helpful, especially on this Old Joe Clark version. I like that little Cripple Creek lick that ends part A.

    Heya Jim, love your videos as always but I really appreciate the fact that you played the full at full speed for this one, gives me personally a better ear for the kind of sound/song I'm trying to learn. I'm trying to catch up on your more recent vids so I suggest doing what you did with this one here and give us a look at your insane talent at the start of the video. Keep up the amazing work, mate! Cheers from Australia and see you soon

    Love your videos, Jim!! I've struggled with the banjo for months, with very little progress. Until I found your channel!! I've learned more in the past few weeks by following your channel than I had in mornths of trying to learn from others. Thanks for what you do!! Any chance you'd be willing to do a lesson for "Not if Nottingham" for the banjo?

    • @JimPankey
      @JimPankey  5 лет назад

      So glad you're having success with these videos of mine. I'm not familiar with that tune though. Who plays it?

    • @laynelarsen738
      @laynelarsen738 5 лет назад +1

      Wow! Thanks for your reply!! The tune I'm talking about, Not in Nottingham, was written for the guitar by Roger Miller. There's a fellow here on RUclips named Moses Barrett who plays a version of it on the banjo. I thought if anyone could do a tutorial on how to play this song, it would be you. Your teaching style can't be beat.

  • @davidmarks509
    @davidmarks509 5 лет назад +1

    These fiddlers and their key of A. It can't be that hard for them to play in the Key of G. I say this as I don't have the capo set yet, and it might take awhile before I do, as they come from the USA. Great lesson.

    • @JimPankey
      @JimPankey  5 лет назад +1

      G on the fiddle is about as easy as A on the banjo. ;)

      It's ok. I always figure that the things I do aren't for everyone. Some people think I talk too much, or I don't have fancy enough split screen multi-camera setups with onscreen tabs. I'd love to have those things, but the main thing I want is for the folks that do like my videos is just to have a good time and learn a little banjo.
