Description

Although the five string banjo is most often associated with bluegrass, it is by no means limited to that style, and sounds wonderful in all sorts of genres. In particular the blues, as this awesome song by American blues musician Otis Taylor shows. With echoes of old time railroad songs and a bit of spooky Appalachian flavor thrown in, this song is a great addition to any banjo pickers repertoire, and will give you a great workout on adding bluesy notes to your Scruggs Style picking. We provide audio tracks for you to hear the peice and jam along of course, but you oughta also listen to him play it with his band on YouTube…good stuff.
