Hey Jim, great tune as always. After getting used to the Scruggs style, its fun to explore the other styles of melodic, single string and clawhammer. Love it, thank you and happy new year!

Glad you liked it. 🎆

Hi Jim! I've been raised on celtic music through my dad and this song has always been around when I was a kid. I'm 41 now and recently I bought a cheap banjo on a whim (it had been on my mind for years but when I first heard the Dead South I couldn't help it) and last week I started learning the Devil's Dream. It's a bit harder than your 10 beginners courses I've done before, but playing that song from my childhood makes me happy. I know the 5-string is different from the irish tenor but maybe you heard of some other irish/scottish tunes that could be adapted to the 5-string? That would be awesome. And by the way, after failing for years to learn to properly play the guitar I'm having a lot of fun learning the banjo from your videos. You're the best, I wanted to say a big thank you! Cheers from France. ;)

Brilliant Jim but I really struggle with the concept of melodic banjo style. Had a stroke & left hand just doesn't want to work with me. I guess I prefer Scruggs style as it feels more "natural", as in I don't have to think too hard where my fingers need to be.
