Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

A rough rendition of Union Jig from Buckley's Banjo Guide (1868). Not my best, but it had been forever since I recorded anything.

Ok, so you really aren't playing full chords(?).......Thanks, Andy.

Nope, just fretting the 4th string with my index finger and the first with my pinky, except for the A# which I seem to play with my ring finger.  I have it more or less tabbed out - I'll try and clean it up and post it sometime today or tomorrow.

Er. guess I play that A# with my middle finger.

Great Andy! I'm inspired to finally work on this one.

I love this kind of stuff, I going to have to try it on fiddle (like I need another tune to work on).
