Hi everybody welcome back to the moose that's music moose dot org
Now in this segment.
I thought I'd just play a little bit for you
Just so you can hear my [G] playing and maybe touch on [N] a few different things
You know I mentioned I playing bluegrass jazz rock and roll or whatever you wanted to play
On the banjo, so I thought it may be just touch a little bit on that
Maybe a little bit more so you can hear my playing and
Maybe we can get to know each other a little bit better over the internet if that's possible.
I hope it is [Em] and
You [N] can remember that you can always
You can always text me in this site, and if you have any questions about anything.
I sure will try [Em] to
answer them for you
[Gm] I'm gonna play a little bluegrass to start out.
I [G] think since we're gonna be starting with
[N] Beginning bluegrass banjo.
I'm gonna play an old traditional tune
One called down the road.
I might even sing a little bit for you because I like to [G] sing so
[N] There's a little bit of down the road
[G]
Well down the road down the road
[Em] [G]
Hey, there's a little bit of down the road now.
[Em] I think I'll
Think I'll play just a little bit of [D] jazz for you.
Just I [G] don't even know what I'm gonna play yet to tell you the truth You know
Start [Bb] with a little [G] blues
Where [B] jazz was born out of the blues you know and there's many different
Forms of [Gb] jazz you [Abm] know that of course started with [Ab] Louis Armstrong as far as I'm concerned
[G] back down [N] in New Orleans and then
[G] right up through bop and cool and [B] free [N] jazz and
Just a whole bunch of different layers in that [E] and that broad [G] term when we call jazz
I'm gonna be touching on about [Gm] that later on [Am] I

We're gonna get into more
More jazz way down the road.
We're gonna start off with that bluegrass get you going on that bluegrass banjo first off
Now I think I'll play a little bit of
[A] [D] rock and roll
Tune that I wrote just play a little piece of this tune
That actually I'm gonna have to [Dm] have in coming out on CD [Bb] here
Probably hopefully within a couple of months with a good friend of mine Billy Gilmore who's also going to be teaching on this website [N] and
This CD is going to be pretty eclectic as far as the content
[G] Again, there's gonna be some jazz bluegrass and rock and roll
[D]

Just as we go along and I'm not gonna [B] get too fussy about how I'm playing
You know everybody plays [E] different on different days and how they're feeling
So I'm [C] just gonna let [N] things roll and just keep this whole thing just moving right along
So I I think I'm gonna leave it there for this segment.
We want to try to keep these videos just as nice and
Short as we can for you is to [G] keep
To [E] keep things just as good as we [Eb] can for you on the internet
So I might I might play [Bb] one more tune for you in the next segment [C] and then move [Gm] on to the [B] parts of the banjo
