Great video. Not what I expected when I was looking up “how to bury my wife and dance on her grave” but still enjoyable.

This was awesome. I love the sound clips and all the context. Great job man!

[@The_Banjo_Buddy]

Thank you Jeff! Really appreciate the kind words!

Great work James!

Thank you Benjamin! Very much appreciated.

Hi James, great channel and your book looks fantastic I’m definitely gonna purchase a copy. Do your charts for each song indicate the harmony (chord changes)?

[@The_Banjo_Buddy]

Hi there! Thank you for the question! Throughout the entire collection, tunes are presented in their simplest form, without adding many variations or chord changes. The tunes look very similar to how they're presented in the videos. Hope this helps!

[@bumblebee1678]

Brilliant tune. The ornamentation is unreal. Is that in your book?

[@The_Banjo_Buddy]

Hi! Thanks a lot for the kind words - very much appreciated! Throughout the entire collection, each tune is presented in its simplest form, without ornamentation. I might consider adding embellishments in a later edition, but the content is quite vast already without adding more pages! Thanks for reaching out!

I found an old Ludwig Capitol 4 string and could not pass it up! I think it's from around early 1930's. But I'm more of a 5 string and 6 string guy

[@The_Banjo_Buddy]

Sounds like a great find! Enjoy playing your new (old!) banjo!🍀

[@aarphi1984]

What a title! 😂

[@The_Banjo_Buddy]

😅😅 Great tune! Not a great name!😅

[@aarphi1984]

@@The_Banjo_Buddy I mean I’ll never forget it! Haha plus Irish (and therefore American Country Music which is descended from it) always has a way of peppering the darker motifs of life with happy lyrics or titles. They say the Irish don’t oft sing a happy song, but they can sing a sad song happy.
