Very nice!

Nice job.  I've always liked that one.  I remember it being used in the sound track for a documentary about the Mexican War.

It's on the CD "Songs of the Santa Fe Trail and the Far West" by Mark Gardner with Clarke Buehling.

Yes, I have that one, too.  Bought it a couple years ago at AEBG.

Great playing as usual and a lovely banjo. Where did you get your shirt and cravat?

Thanks. The shirt is a "Mexican Wedding Shirt" bought at an antique fair. I bought the cravat from Gentlemen's Emporium. I bought the hat at another antique show last week. It's a little worn, but it fits.
