For the first post in this section, why not have some banjo?  The player is Michael Neverisky, and he is an excellent fingerstyle guitar player as well as banjo player. This little clip is short, very sweet and demonstrates two old time banjo styles : two-finger and clawhammer. |

Nice. It had me singing along, and you've got to admire the way he slipped into clawhammer without missing a beat.

Yes it's the casual, relaxed way he plays that impresses me - note perfect, but in no hurry and without obvious effort.

Everything about this vid is beautifully done...the playing [ effortless perfection] , the lighting [ highlighting the greying hair and beard] , the recording [par excellence]... And the windows [closed]  Only joking ..thought it was great! |
