So nice! I love it! There's a feeling good banjo playing gives me, and this is does. I played the banjo some and played Dixie, but not like this. You are the (banjo) man! :-)
I know it's been 4 years since you posted this.. and as you can see.. it's become pretty popular... for good reason! It is extremely well played, and most of all it is an AMAZING arrangement of piece for banjo. I know that tabs are hard to put together, so I'm wondering if you would consider posting a video lesson on how to play this. I think I would be one of many banjo players who would be extremely grateful.
After many years have at last bought a banjo and at last have the time to learn its ways. Thank you for being a sauce of insperation and guidence to an eager but elderly student.
You are very crisp. I'm just starting to play banjo and I can only hope to sound like that someday. Those chords you use are KILLER!!!! Thank you for this video.

Many thanks for your generosity ogershok in allowing me to use this truly superb rendition as the soundtrack to my video, which I have posted as a response.
Youtube is a sharing community and I wish to thank you for sharing your formidable talent with us in the first place, and also for having the generosity of spirit to allow others to use your work in their projects.
I love this! discovered this video a long time ago, and it's been an inspiration to me ever since. Been playing the banjo for about two years now, and this is definetely one of the songs I wanted to play. I do now (but in a bit simplified version:-)), all thanks to this video of yours! Thanks a lot sir
Whenever I think I'm getting good, I listen to this and realize I've still got a looooooooooooooot to learn. Thanks for posting these videos, you're an inspiration.
Dear ogershok. Care to reveal what tuning you´re using? Obviously it´s not standard tuning, as my with the banjo still unexperineced ear tells me? Or?
Yo, Gen. Lt. of the banjo..I.`ve may have heard your most intriging interpretation a 100 folds. Wau once again. You really make me wanna try out the banjo for real....
Gee, man. This is exceptional musical understanding....as well as banjoplaying.....guess you play also the guitar as you squeeze also your banjo for exqisit chords. Carry on, General Major....carry on at will. Nice to enjoy skill and musical understanding to the limit. Best of greetings....Thomas/stringpiano, good ol´DK
I'm speechless... I absolutely love this song, and hearing you play it on the banjo makes it sound even better! I'm not from the South, but I'm fascinated by almost anything Southern.
it's a good song and you played it well, with a great progressive and evocative style. juice up the joints with glucosamine, baby...rock on...you've got everything the soul of music can give.
Its obvious that you are methodically and melodiously patient, which makes you a musical genius. I assume the few videos you posted only scratch the surface? Well I'm itchin for more! Its been 6 months already!!
Thanks very much - but these vids were taped about a decade ago when I was making a video for my parent's 50th anniversary. I don't even have a video camera anymore and the old 60 year old fingers are slowwing down a lot. Doing mostly mandolin stuff now. I really appreciate your feedback.
I could probably work it out but I don't have any video equipment now. These vids were done over ten years ago before I was a certified old geezer. Thanks for the kind words.
I don't know of any websites that are really helpful but a local teacher is probably the best idea. Preferably one who isn't totally hung up on hard core bluegrass. Best of luck!
Do you have a songbook I could copy or have to learn how to play this song? I am OBSESSED with it and will learn it at any cost. I need the notes or the song book or something to read off of while I practice.
Thank you very much. Is it difficult? That's hard to answer because what's difficult for one is not necessarily difficult for another. I consider it fairly easy. I have to admit however, it's a reasonably advanced arrangement or so I've been told. Thanks again.
I think that is an extremely advanced version I can understand why you would think it is fairly easy with your talent but it is way beyond the avereage picker none the less though I admire your playing.
Your version of Dixie is beautiful. Could you please send me the tab for it. My email address is changcg@verizon.net
I appreciate it. Best Regards
