Arnie Naiman B.F. Shelton's Darlin Cora (13) B.F. Shelton's Darlin Cora 08 Oct 99


I get REALLY EXCITED when I learn something new on the banjo. B.F. Shelton's Darlin Cora recorded in 1927 is one of those masterpieces of solo banjo songs that mesmorizes me. Well I just decided I'd maybe try and figure out how he played it, and I've started to work on it. I tuned ny banjo eCGCC and using 2 fingers only for picking. I think I'm getting that quick nice rhythm he gets (which is almost backwards to how I play clawhammer tunes). THIS IS VERY COOL!
