    This is an old Bill Monroe tune that you don't seem to hear much these days. I started doing it with one of my bands and it's more popular with audiences than I expected. Don't worry, I stop playing the banjo around 00:45.



    There is some tab that will get you started here. The Nashville Bluegrass Band do it very well on Twenty Year Blues.

    Thanks very much all you kind folks. I'm delighted by all your comments, everyone seems to enjoy this tune. And even requests for more banjo? I must be doing something right (or wrong)
