I do love these old spiritual/gospel/hymns on banjo. Thank you for putting this out here for us.

[@JimPankey]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

I've not been playing 2 months yet but I have played guitar since 1970 and play mostly anything with strings or keyboards. Maybe it's learning something new at my age but Banjo has been a challenge. I learned Boil Them Cabbage Down from another channel but it left me pretty confused. Then I found your channel and I feel like I've made leaps and bounds on my learning, thanks to you! I didn't see you had a lesson on this song and last night I started picking it out on my own. I can't do a roll if you call it out by name yet, I'm still very new. But this is the first song I've just tried to work out on my own on Banjo. Having played other instruments for so many years, that is one of the big "breakthrough" moments for me, when I can hear something and say Hey, I think I can play that! I want to work on it on my own for a few more days, then I'll watch this video and look at the tab I downloaded from the patreon page and see how far off I am! :) You are an awesome teacher Jim! Thank you so much!

[@JimPankey]

Thanks. If you’ve not gone thru my beginner series you should check it out. Tons of info there.

[@TheBluzeman]

@@JimPankey Yep, been working on it. I have Cripple Creek down at 95 BPM, still struggling to get it consistent at 100. Just learned Banjo in the Hollow but no speed at all on it yet. Been skipping around on some other videos on your channel, learning bit's and pieces here and there. Thanks again for all your work!

Applause applause!

[@JimPankey]

Glad to do it!

Love the song…Banjo caught my eye..Geoffs story behind it is inspiring and uplifting..Geoff Stelling, Tony Ellis and many others have done remarkable work..Beautiful piece.

Thank you Jim, very enjoyable. And I love the Stelling; a Stelling always gets me thinking about Alan Munde tunes....

Cheers for another fantastic lesson!

[@JimPankey]

Thanks 😊

[@tom-green]

@@JimPankey Is the song ending you play at the start of the video the same as the one from the lesson? They sound slightly different (to my very untrained ears).

[@JimPankey]

@@tom-green Looks pretty much the same...

[@joeivie3934]

Thank you Jim. I'm going out of order here- going back to work on 2 dollar bill next!

[@JimPankey]

Either way works. :)

[@sergeyplubic8260]

Hey from Germany. I really appreciate your lessons :) Im still new to the Banjo but I already made some progress. You are a great teacher.

[@JimPankey]

Awesome, thank you! Keep me posted on your progress. :)

[@bigblockbumpside2296]

Love to see you do a tutorial on “sweet beuhla land” thanks for all the help jim.

[@JimPankey]

Yup... not gonna happen. I don't play it on banjo at all. Thanks for asking again.

[@bigblockbumpside2296]

@@JimPankey sorry i didnt see your reply the first time. Thanks jim!

[@vickimerrill1949]

Just this week I was thinking about this song and started picking out the melody! Great timing sir!

[@JimPankey]

Enjoy!

[@banjo757]

Nice Jim!!

[@JimPankey]

Thanks ☺️

[@BanjoBumbleBee]

Could we go in the opposite direction and cover "Oh death/a conversation with death" by Dock Boggs?

[@JimPankey]

I don’t play any Boggs stuff, but I’m sure you can take the techniques I teach in my lessons an figure it out.

[@thecountrypressley5265]

Banjo Neal played this song so great in the clawhammer style

[@JimPankey]

Sure do miss Neal.

[@ukiyoronin3270]

Hey Jim! Have you ever seen a banjo rendition of “Guide us, O Thou Great Jehovah”? I’d love to find one!

[@JimPankey]

I’m not familiar with that one.

[@caydenbrewer9379]

What banjo is this? I love that cross on the headstock!

Is that your Stelling banjo? It’s beautiful.

[@JimPankey]

Yup! Thanks!

[@dionaeaspouse]

another similar tune that i've been struggling with a bit is Somebody Touched Me, particularly the Stanley Brothers arrangement. would you ever consider doing a tutorial on that one?

[@JimPankey]

I really don’t do stuff like that where I break down other people’s arrangements.

[@stephensheridan93]

👍 Thanks for the video Just watching for now 6 more weeks of hand therapy I hope I don’t lose all the skills you taught me Mrs Sheridan @StephenSheridan

[@JimPankey]

You can do it!

[@broganvickrey326]

You have taught me to play banjo ur a g if u could do a video on doc Boggs oh death I would love it

[@JimPankey]

I don’t play anything like that.

[@jujunenetiti]

I'm starting the banjo, your lessons are very nice, it helps me a lot. (even if my English is not very good and I don't understand everything) You don't have stiff necks?😛 Thanks to you.

[@JimPankey]

Thanks for letting me teach you 😊

[@thebrowithnoname1703]

Help, Jim (or anybody). I accidentally destroyed my banjo just a little while ago. I propped my banjo against a wall where it slid, hitting the floor and breaking off the entire peghead (or head stock) right off the top of the neck (at the nut). The tuning bridge also came off. I’m both infuriated with myself and devastated. I could cry. I just need some advice: Is there any point in trying to get it repaired or should I just buy a new one? It was more of a rare banjo; an Emperador which is a Japanese copy of a Gibson RB-250.

[@JimPankey]

That can certainly be repaired. A good local music store should be able to direct you to a good luthier that can fix you up!

[@thebrowithnoname1703]

@@JimPankey Thanks, Jim. I’ll definitely look into it.

[@pvesely299]
