  • Bad Eye Granville Bowling was a coal miner in Kentucky and my granfather, I remember sitting in the floor listening to him play. He would tell me and my siblings to platy when we said we didn't know how he would tell us the the song was on there we just needed to pick it off.

  • What a great sounding song! and that RING ON THAT BANJO Does anyone perhaps know what kind/make it is?

  • He is one of my favorites. Right up there with Roscoe and George Pegram.

  • This is a sus4 tuning of the type of gDGCD but the high note is a major note (if what was played at the opening was an "open " chord. . Wild . Just wonderful . I know this from Lilly May Ledford . Wonderful clip . Thanks Guy
