Banjo Instrumental by Dee Hicks
Added 2018-03-02 08:53:46 +0000 UTCSounds like up-picking with lots drop-thumbs and brushing to fill in as he notes high up the neck on this beautiful piece of music. Lots of other great recordings (and plenty of photos and good writing) to be found on this website: www.sandrockrecordings.com
Sounds like I need to revisit our up-picking session with a video on how I think he's playing.

I agree - I like the "history" style informative posts as well

2018-03-02 22:11:29 +0000 UTCSounds like up-stroke with a bunch of drop-thumbs worked in. That's a cool technique that I should talk about in the future.
