Thank you very much bfb88. The trick is to keep your cuttings clean before speeding up when you learn the tune.

@apologeticsman It's banjo breakdown for sure, you're thinking of some other tune, maybe foggy mountain breakdown(bluegrass) I don't know, but this is banjo breakdown. Not well played.

@ enferushostis........... Spot on. This definately the banjo breakdown

[dcigx]

@Enferushostis Banjo Breakdown?

[Enferushostis]

ok, I won´t argue. I have played almost 40 years. Check the written notation in the Scots Guards standard settings of pipe music. Anybody else out there care to name this 6/8 Jig

I have been in a bluegrass band for 13 years, it ain't the breakdown... it is pleasant and well played, but it is not the banjo breakdown, sorry. This a very much played Scottish tune, one that can be found on CDs by Gordon Duncan and so on.
