Played on the new Whyte Laydie Eastman banjo from Bernunzio's Up-Town music. Big Scioto (often spelled and/or pronounced Scioty or Sciota) is an Ohio tune that I have been playing for years. It is recorded with my band, The Boiled Buzzards on our Fine Dining cd. The tab for it appears in my book Old Time Festival Tunes for Clawhammer Banjo. The banjo will be in the January 2012 issue of The Old Time Way section of Banjo Newsletter.
Enjoy.
I like the way you play phrases when you play Dan....its not just about notes...phrasing is big...I am getting there!
