The second part of a two-part series on turning your 5-string banjo into an instant banjo uke. Aimed at intermediate clawhammer players. Focuses on hearing chord changes and deciding which chord to play.
Uses an Illinois version of "Fly Around, My Pretty Little Miss" played by Garry Harrison, Genevieve Harrison, Jo Burgess, and Cathy Moore. For many more Illinois tunes, see http://www.dearoldillinois.com.
Practice your strumming at Jim Bottorff's fun site with chords and midi versions of old American songs:
