GUEST,Zhenya	How to learn to play clawhammer banjo (12)	RE: Folklore: How to learn to play clawhammer banjo	18 Aug 08
OK, some posts are pretty funny, but clawhammer is about as natural a way to play as any...e.g., African akonting players. Down picking is a normal rhythmic pattern and curving the hand, naturally, to permit a middle or index finger to grab a string on the way down is just normal. No fire necessary, no gloveless hardball catch neither. Just pick up a banjar and start banging on it.
