ok i've watched this about a dozen times. is there anything unique about how you are using your pinky in the pull-offs? looks to me like it's just part of the melody with simple pull-offs with your pinky. i'm about to start trying to recreate this. your version sounds awesome.

Thanks for all these amazing videos and the inspiration they've given me to learn this style of playing! I'm really loving it! Could you please tell me what's the line after "well she drinks the sweet flower..."? (At around 4:27) I can't quite decipher the end of it. Thanks in advance.

Over the last two years I must have watched this video 50 times or more, and every time I am completely hypnotized. Just the finest rendition of the banjo part I have ever heard. Clarence Ashley and Hobart Smith have nothing on you. Thank you for this one.

I don't ever get tired of listening to him pick and sing. It makes me happy to know there are younger folks still carryin on with this music.

it's sawmill tuning but probably tuned down to suit clifton's voice
