Hi dave Im trying to learn the 5 string banjo The sailors Hornpipe has always been a favorite of mine since a kid. I am now 78 and Im determined to be able to play it Many Thanks Dave. If you'll pardon the expression Its Music to my ears. A very big Thank you - Doug from Clacton Essex
Damn it where did these tears come from? I literally only now found this guys page by accident. Only to then google and find out he's gone. Truly an amazing artist and I simply wished he had more love on his channel.
The world is so much poorer now that Dave has left us. I thank God Almighty for allowing Dave to grace our presence for the time allotted him; his mastery and showmanship of the five-string banjo was nothing short of joy for the eyes and ears. May your soul now rest in peace.
Finding a gem of a video like this on RUclips makes all the junk I've sat through worthwhile. Great musicianship along with great spontaneous choreography ... what's not to like. RIP Dave.
Blimey ! This is one VERY enjoyable video ! You play a mean banjo Dave, the song is stirring and those gals are a couple o' cuties ! What's not to love ? Well done, sir ! Kudos ! THANX for sharing ! CHEERS, mate ! :-)
Oh, a sailor's life is The life for me How I love to sail o'er The bounding sea And I never, never, Ever do a thing about the weather For the weather never Ever does a thing for me! Oh, a sailor's life is the life for me Tiddle-ee-um pom pom Deedle dum dum dee
Heard this on classic fm the other day and it always reminds me of the proms ( SPITFIRE PROMS) so that brings me to youtube and onto your vid. Great job Dave and great job to the dancers too. :-) ps i would have put a pound in the box.
You know you're seeing something special when kids spontaneously start dancing.
I certainly have a notion to second THAT emotion !! :-)
It's the highest honor a street musician can recieve.
R.I.P. Dave, one of the greatest banjo players of all times.
Big thumbs up for the Banjo Babes….Priceless.
@@jamestoni uhhhhhhhhhhhh i dont think he meant it like that bro
I'm and old Navy man and this tune just makes me smile. Unprecedented performance.
The Sailor's Hornpipe is a joyous sound that travels into the ear and down one's legs.
Scott Angell mm..hm.. I...see. alrighty then
You speak the truth, Kemo Sabe !!
With Spinach!
We miss you Dave,CHEERS where ever you are

Don't you just love it that Dave adjusts the capo on the 5th string with out even blinking an eye!
Huh? When?
1.40 & 2.12 👍😉
Wonderful! I love this. So joyful. God bless you for giving joy.
Brings back memories of my late brother Eric playing this on his Fender.
When I played banjo in Harvard Square in the '70s, I attracted the same amount of interest as Dave did here.
Brilliant...and great seeing lovely innocent youth having a great time
