This video and the one preceding it just absolutely took my playing to another level. Thank you. I'm sorry BanjoMeetsWorld is no longer active. You're a great teacher, you expand the banjo landscape--oh, and you're absolutely adorable on camera. If you ever need a place to crash in Tucson, you're welcome to stay with us.

Revisiting this video; one of my faves. I wonder what Cathy is up to these days...I loved her 'world' approach to the banjo.

This is great piece of teaching and playing. Thank you. And there are some lovely weird haunting overtones I’m hearing in the B part. Can’t wait to find out what those are all about.

Great to get a chance to hear slow and fast versions--many thanks for sharing!

[@10kscoedsk]

Sounds beautiful. I cannot wait until I get to this point of playing. I will return when I do!Thanks

[@guywolff]

Thanks .This is a very popular tune in Connecticut. I love the term "Back up and push" for this attack .. This was fun to play along to .. IF you are ever in Litchfield county stop by my pottery for some tunes . Yours Guy

[@chuckjeffery944]

Thanks for the lesson. So Good!

[@guywolff]

Great tune and wonderful pop in the rhythm .. I like the tar paper keeping your wood dry as well . Sorry we missed seeing your dog ! If you are near New England it would be fun to get together and play .. Im In Connecticut and have a pottery shop .
I do a lot of rhythm work with my pinky and chord washes as well that way . All the best , Guy

Great way to play this song! Thanks for the slow and fast versions. :)

[@rbdavisphoto]

those were great lessons! I'm a firm believer in making a song, yours. As much as I try, I just can't force myself to a straight bum-ditty with the thumb. I have to alternate. Might come from years of guitar and the Doc Watson 2 finger style which transfers to Banjo nicely.

Nice job...sounds good!

[@drescherhenrik]

I sent you a video response to thank you for recording this. I learnt it a few days ago from this video. If you have a chance to review it im always up for pointers. I have been playing claw hammer for about a year now. Thanks again.
