Raleigh and Spencer - Clawhammer Banjo

This is one of several bonus features included on my new clawhammer banjo instructional DVD, "Unfortunate Puppy and Other Fine Tunes: Lessons in Intermediate & Advanced Clawhammer Banjo" out on Mel Bay. Jonathan VanBallenberghe from Open Lens Productions did the filming and editing. See http://hunterrobertson.com/unpupframe.html for more information about the DVD.

The banjo's tuned gCGCC (tuned down to B). Based on Tommy Jarrell's recording with some additional lyrics.

Performance and arrangement by Hunter Robertson — www.hunterrobertson.com

[HunterRobertson]

@xergi123 Thanks Jed! I have a couple of videos up about Darling Cora here, more instructional than for listening. I can't post a link here, but if you go to my Youtube channel, then "Uploads" you should find them.

Good Lord this is freaking awesome! I thought I'd watched all your videos, but I missed this one. Man, you are my favorite modern banjo player, hands down. Keep doing what you do. You are an inspiration. I don't mean to sound weird saying this, but I could watch your right hand all day!

[HunterRobertson]

@bigfrankiej3211 Thanks! That's all right, I've watched my share of right hands too!
