Banjo Hangout Top 100 Bluegrass Songs

I've been messing with my Fostex MR-8HD recording machine over the past week as I had a little time. Someone asked me about the Don Reno tune Sockeye. I never really played it so I decided that would be a good song to learn and record so I could practice using the Fostex. I've had the machine for several years but could never find the time to really learn how to use it. Anyway, I had a lot of fun messing around with this tune.

RK76

A tune from Alan Munde's Banjo Sandwich album. Key of F.

Don Wayne Reno playing one of his dad's favorites.

One of the greatest bluegrass instrumentals ever.Here's my attempt.

Named after the Cascade mountain range, I have had the privilege to visit there many times as a resident of the Pacific NorthWest.

Just a couple of days ago I decided to learn how to play this incredibly melodic tune written by Paul Craft (as played by Ben Eldridge of The Seldom Scene), and I think I've about got it down. There are a few rough spots, but that's to be expected since I'm not Ben Eldridge. This was played on my custom banjo with a Huber tone ring, Frank Neat neck, and Factory Floor rim. It was recorded with a Zoom H2 Handy Recorder, and was mixed and edited using Audacity.

I learned this from one of those Flinner, Grier, Phillips albums.

Great old tune

Great song from the Dueling banjo's record ......also known as New Dimmensions in Bluegrass...with Clarence White on guitar!!WOW!!

This if for TOTW August

aDF#AD . . . not Foster's original chords. I just played harmonies that sounded nice to me. I couldn't resist using a diminished chord in the chorus.

My latest amateur, multi-track recording effort playing all of the bluegrass instruments :-) I borrowed most of the banjo lead from Tony Trischka's "All Star Bluegrass Jam Along Book" for banjo. It's a nice jam along book with a practice CD. The banjo is a nice hobby and great therapy!
