    I learned "Sally Ann" from Josh Hayes of Watauga County, North Carolina. Josh always used a straight hoedown picking style to play this one. My instrument is an 1888 Thompson & Odell "The Luscomb" banjo tuned e♭ G♯ E♭ G♯ B♭

    In 100 years, archivists are going to convert "The Clifton Hicks Videos" to 3D holograms for future generations to research and enjoy.

    Gets the foot tapping! I like Tommy Jarrel's version aswell, fascinating to see how different these versions are, just shows it's a living tradition.

    Always live in hope that Clifton might do a small musical visit to England to see the man in the flesh.Very unlikely I suspect but would be good to shake his hand.Great rendition.

      @CliftonHicksbanjo I hear ya. Haven't picked up my banjo in months. This week in my kids school his classmates were learning all sorts of sounds and starting to work with instruments and the sounds they make and the teachers sent home a letter asking if any of the parents played any instruments and I was well. Shit I guess I'll have to pull out the ol Buckbee and resting and shake off the rust and brush the dust from me and that old thing. Needless to say while setting it back up I was going through a lot of your catalog trying to get my bearings back til about 11 pm. The kids all enjoyed it and a few other faculty members heard it and came in to watch and was able to pass the banjo and let each member of my kids class have a chance to play it while also learning alittle about banjo heritage with how old that specific banjo was where banjo came from and why it's such a special and personal instrument. Played a few tunes for the kids like cluck old hen, old Joe Clark, don't get trouble in your mind and another I wrote. Just a little taste of what you get to sharing your knowledge with people all over the world even though mine was to a class of 4-5 year Olds it was still pretty magic and after that somehow I've managed to gain even more respect for you and what you do and just like to say thank you again for still educating folks about the banjos importance and place in the world.

      @gp-banjo Місяць тому

      Depends on tuning. For standard tuning the four bottom strings are dgbd on a banjo and dgbe on guitar, so there are some similarities.
