Love the tune and especially to have you back teaching online again! To help you get back on track, Jeff and I started a Go Fund Me fundraiser for you. If other folks would like to contribute can you share the link for me? Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Great tune to learn while sitting in front of my fireplace here in Connecticut. Thanks again for such amazing teaching videos. Good to see you back on making videos.
BIG BADD JIMBO!!! Nuthin can keep a GOOD MAN DOWN!!!! I love ya MAN!!! Thanks for the tune!! We are gonna be out your way and I would love to come meet you and buy some of your time for a “ I’ll fix your pickin issues.”
Merry Christmas I just got the earl scruggs banjo song book, all tabs and such and over 80 tunes:) you got my feet off the ground and hit wanted to say thank you:)
Good to see you back Jim. Can't believe I am going to give this a go. You have taken me from the ten lessons to trying to learn tunes such as this. Thank you and congratulations on your recovery.
Welcome back!!! We missed you - but it gave me a chance to practice practice practice over and over. And over. What a nice way to wind down the year with you back in the banjo tutorial game :)
Thanks Jim! I recommend this tune in your livestream and got real excited when you said you'd make a video for it. I love seeing my favorite songs get shared all around. If you're looking for more lesson ideas, Don't Give Your Heart to a Rambler.
Your looking well MrJim, and back to your old self at the picking so you are. This tune Darling Corey looks deceptively simple but is far from it. However its not beyond any levels of playing we just need to keep at it. Jim would you please show us how you play the Ould Spinning Wheel. Its a great old tune which the great Raymond Fairchild was well known for. For anyone unfamiliar with that tune or Raymond, it was kinda Raymonds signature tune I believe. Jim you know of Raymond and the Spinning Wheel, of that I am certain. Thanks MrJim for another great lesson.
@@JimPankey Your right its very popular, I look forward to your rendition Mr Jim. May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very Merry Xmas from us in Devon UK.
My Dad had the same operation/removal as yourself and yes, mental healing from the worry and stress is just as important as the physical healing . Great to see you back at it and thank you Jim 👏👏💪🪕
Look at all those comments welcoming you back. You must be doing something right eh Jim? Have a fabulous Christmas, stay warm! We're sweltering here in New Zealand.
Hi, Mr Pankey! I'm a 17-year-old homeschooler and I have been teaching myself bluegrass banjo using your videos for several months. I've completed your beginners bluegrass lessons and learned a few other songs. Thanks to your videos I have come quite a way since October, and I have really developed a passion for bluegrass. I've decided I'd like to learn to read music and I was wondering if you have any sources/books you would recommend? Thanks so much!
I’m thrilled that I’ve been about to help you learn. Unfortunately, I don’t really have any resources to point you toward for learning to read notation. I learned to read for guitar when I was 29 years old… My reading skills are very limited.
Happy to hear your recovering well. Tech question ... Limited funds (disabled):can you recommend any particular planetary runners for a cheap RK open back, like a used dirty thirties.
Hi Jim. Do you think you can make a lesson for the way Adam Lee Marcus plays “Dixie” It’s my favorite cover of the song on banjo. Also glad you are doing well.
Jim where is your song the “rarest flower of all?” Have loved that song you wrote for your wife or your girlfriend. Cannot find it anymore really needed to hear it again. It’s a genius / melody Aragment
Hey Jim. I really love listening to you, Im getting zero percent better at banjo, but any chance youd do a video on how to play the irish song "An Maidrin Rua"? Its a fun little banjo song with some great accordion if you check out The Pogues. It's a song Id really like to learn, and its very calming and chipper. Just a suggestion. Love your videos and personality. Be safe and happy in the coming years!
Hi Jim, I bought my first banjo about 35 years ago and admittedly played AT it till I lost it in a divorce. I recently got turned on to your channel and got inspired to try and pick it up again. I looked all over for a RK-R20 and just can't find one so I switched over to a Gold Tone CC 100R. 1) Have I made a decent decision? 2) I followed your tutorial on setting up a new banjo and found that after I had removed the resonator and I tried to tighten the screws on the head, I started at the neck and worked my way around adjusting 1/4 turn. When I got to the ones at what would be half way. I found them to be loose and when it tightened them they would turn and come off of the head ring. I just can't get the darned things to stay in place so I can adjust the other side. PLEASE HELP! Might I add starting all over with your 10 lesson series. You're an amazing picker. Thanks Jim.

That brightened up a cold evening in Southern England.
☺️
To paraphrase a line from Christmas Story movie: Wild Jimbo is putting out new banjo videos again, and all is right in the world.
😆
Jim I’m so pleased your back and well on the road to recovery
Thanks 😊
And great grace descended on us! But seriously, we are very glad and health to you!

Glad I could help!
It's great to have you back Jim! Thank you for this video, I'll definitely give it a go. Not used the dropped c before!

Glad to help
Cheers Jim doing a great job, good to see your healthy and enjoying it all again, hope you make it back to Northern Ireland again..

Gotoh is my go to.
Is that tshirt from the Taco Stand in Athens, GA??? Fond memories of that place, happy to see that shirt and see you doing so well!
It is!! I think they still have some.
Merry Christmas jim!!!
Merry Christmas 🎄 🎅🏼
omg yes! thank you :)
Enjoy ☺️
I love the tune rye whiskey and I was wondering if you could do a tutorial video for it, love your style of teaching
Never thought about that one. I’ll think about it. Not really much of a banjo tune in my mind though.
@@JimPankey sorry I meant the one by stringbean, didnt know there was more than one version, and thanks so much for your consideration in advance
Glad to see you are getting your calluses back!
Me too! Still a ways to go...
Toughest one yet but good to aim to another level of playing 😁
This one does have a couple of tricky bits.
Hi Jim. Do you think you can make a lesson for the way Adam Lee Marcus plays “Dixie” It’s my favorite cover of the song on banjo. Also glad you are doing well.
I have zero plans to do a lesson on Dixie.
Mighty fine
Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you so very much!
What are those wild looking silver cases back there? Nice lesson!
Case covers from ClimateCase.

Yeah... it's common for them to loosen as you go around... Everything is still settling in. You can go around again and just snug those up.
What kind of D tuners are they?

Welcome ! I again look for You : l see Smile on Your face , and ...and crying You eyes. Why ? Eyes this is mirror soul .
You need help ?
I'm good. Just relieved and happy to be back and getting better every day.
