Thank you for the clarification, Strum. Having several "tune-shops" going sounds like a good idea.

<p>Hi Carl, I had started a "Beginner tune of the Month" specifically intended for beginners, for several reasons. I didn't want to interfere with Tim's or anyone else's TOTWeek, which was almost always too difficult and flew by too fast for me to learn or record. So I wanted to encourage an additional one but geared towards slower <em>beginners</em> so they could work on one of the simpler repertoire tunes for several weeks before attempting to record it...here was my post about it: …</p>

<p>I encourage everyone to continue as Tim has done in the past- posting regular level "Tune of the <strong>Week</strong>"s as well, whenever they like! The more options for various level players the better, I figure. :)</p>

<p>Great idea, Tom!</p>
<p>A great, if not THE greatest, beginner tune of all.</p>
<p>Yeah, I've noticed some little variations in tabs from different people.</p>
<p>My favorite recorded verion is Clark Buehling's, tho I suspect he laid in more than one banjo tracks(?). Even with two tracks, there's only one Clark! ;D I love the percussion rattling.... <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShCEgVsTLx8" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShCEgVsTLx8</a></p>
