He was my Dad’s second cousin. They used to run around together growing up. They enjoyed fishing in the morning and come home and have lunch then hang out on the porch all afternoon and playing music up in to the night. He was a too talent! He not only played the guitar well but had a good singing voice. And could really “cut a rug” as the old saying goes. Those feet could go a mile a minute! He got his first banjo when he was 12 years old. He sold his two prized bantam chickens and bought his banjo. His Dad played the banjo and taught him how to play. He entered a talent contest and won first place. The rest is history. He and Estelle, his wife, were brutally taken from us too soon. God bless their souls!

She had to be held from popping right out there like a piece of popcorn because she wanted to dance along with the giant stringbean so much! Almost got away with it, too!

[@alicefreeman4459]

Wasn't he something?? Dang, I'm 58 now. He looked much older back then. In 1973, I was 8 years old...we looked forward to HeeHaw! Gloom, despair and agony on me, deep dark depression, excessive misery!! if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all, Gloom, despair, and agony on meee....

Pete from O brother was definitely modeled after Stringbean. The Buzzcut, crooked teeth and overall facial similarities are pretty astounding.

[@sgccompany825]

When you walk up to a juke box and you slip a nickel in, You bet your bottom dollar when that record starts to spin You'll hear a fiddle and a gittar with a honky tonkin' sound It's hillbilly fever and it's speadin' all around. Hillbilly fever's goin' ‘round Good ol' mountain music's got me down. It's got me robbin' castles, throwin' rice and slippin' around. Hillbilly fever's got me down. When you git that jumpy feelin' and you don't know what is wrong Don't you worry about bother there's a brand new mountain song That's got the whole durn country rockin' with that big gavel beat It's the hillbilly breakdown that shakes you off a your feet Hillbilly fever's goin' ‘round Good ol' mountain music's got me down. I spent a Sunday down in Tennessee and here's what I found Hillbilly fever's goin' ‘round When that love bug comes around you and you don't know you been stung And you go and see a doctor and he says poke out your tongue And he looks into that canyon, tells you brother I got news You're the victim of sweet buddy and you got the love sick blues Hillbilly fever's goin' ‘round Good ol' mountain music's got me down. I'mgonna one foot, two foot sweet foot drag then I hold you down Hillbilly fever's goin' ‘round

Of the 4 main banjo playing styles string was the master of 3 for sure. I've seen videos of him doing claw hammer, finger picking, and frailing all in 1 song, but I never knew of him playing slide, but that don't mean he couldn't

[@martyspence8590]

His father, James Akeman was a banjo player and taught Stringbean to play all types of banjo styles as a young boy. I know this because he is a distant cousin through my Dad. My Dad used to go fishing with him when they were teenagers. They would fish in the mornings and come home and play music until late in the evenings.
