This is the first five-string bluegrass style banjo tune ever recorded by a woman.
And [F#] that woman was Ronnie Stoneman.
She recorded this song in [G] [B] the album that it was released on, it came out in 1957.
So I'm assuming she recorded it in probably late 1956.
It was for a project Mike Seeger was putting together.
It was called American Banjo [G] Three Finger and Scrug Style.
This is called Montereau Blues and I'll tell you what Mike told me that was behind the recording of this.
Alright, ready Casey?
_ I'll be Ronnie. _ _ _

It's always _ so much fun to play with Casey.
It's just such a pleasure.
And [G] especially when she, I think, would like a really fancy lyric like this [E] one.
_ _ _ Which I worked really hard to learn off of her.
So I do that and Casey makes it [N] even fancier.
