Banjo Instrumental by Dee Hicks

Sounds 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

Hi Clifton. Really enjoying your posts, and they're inspiring me to play more having hit a bit of a plateau with my banjo playing lately. I presume Dee Hicks is a relative?

Awesome

Sounds like up-stroke with a bunch of drop-thumbs worked in. That's a cool technique that I should talk about in the future.

Very interesting, lately I’ve been getting better at listening to someone play a song and determining what style it’s being played but this one is different, I like it

Patrick Campbell

Yeah, just seen it for the first time. Look up "Virgil Anderson" on there, his write-up is a hoot--lots of interesting characters.

Wow, sandrockrecordings.com what a great site!
