Welcome to the latest issue of Banjo Sessions®!

This issue we have Wayne Shrubsall and his clawhammer version of "Year of Jubilo". It's the drop thumb mate to Alan Munde's three finger version from their "Old Friends" cd. Michael Keyes continues with his series "Beginning Irish Traditional Banjo" with his article "Reels." Michael demonstrates the proper right hand technique. Michael has included downloadable video files. I've included an article showing how to play basic blues licks and backup.
