Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

From the Elias Howe Collection Ian posted. From the page with several "Essences" on it. Played as is, in briggsthink. It actually has tempo mark, and a few dynamic markings...so this is "slow".

Curious little tune. Nice to hear the gourd (It's Canadian Thanksgiving so it's a good day for gourds) Those four "essences" in the Howe book all appear on page 24 of Cole's 1000 Fiddle Tunes (aka Ryan's Mammoth)
They're even in the same order.
