Mountain Dew: Banjo Lesson

Mountain Dew is a fantastic traditional Appalachian folk song, popular in bluegrass circles. This arrangement on the banjo has 2 variations, featuring both the Scruggs & melodic techniques, with a bunch of great lick ideas, recorded in the key of G (standard tuning), but can be transposed easily with a capo. Typically played at quite a fast tempo, there are some demanding passages within the 2 breaks, certainly suited to the advancing picker.
