His legacy IS being passed down. I also LOVE this tune. Just discovered Banjo 2 weeks ago. Listened to ALL the versions of this song on Tube. Buying a New Gold Tone CC-OT with planetary keys Friday ( Driving 260 Miles). I also have been watching Patrick's lessons. Great teacher.
I WILL play this... RC's way. Thanks RC, Gone too soon.
I'm sitting at my desk, doing some job search. Listening to your music did nothing but make me want to get in a car and drive cross country. (I'm on the east coast U.S.)
It's the 5th of July and there has to be somewhere better to be than at this desk. But I guess I'll settle for this American classical music. Great picking, friend.
I want to learn THIS version of Sally Ann... to hell with the version I know, it's not half as funky (and party friendly) as this one.. The beautiful thing about heaven is you get to play your banjo there! Thanks buddayy
"...a cross between Dave Macon and Lynard Skinnard." Exactly what I thought. Great sound. Nice website, too. I'm learning a lot from this video, so Rod goes on teaching.
i went to your website about your friend. i can tell you loved him a whole lot. one thing is for sure, he IS with the LORD now and he IS happy. and he will always be apart of you. thanks for the videos.
I just visited the website you created for Rod. I'm not what you call the emotional type but I have to tell that it brought tears to my eyes. A friend like you is hard to find. I'm very sorry for your loss.
That is so cool. It sounds like a cross between Dave Macon and Lynard Skinnard. And I think that lap-top in the corner of the frame makes this a great ironic portrait of modern rural America.
What a talent. Thank You for posting this!!

Just stumbled upon this. What a wonderful voice.
Was wondering if anyone could help me figure out the words of the second verse.
