Banjo Heritage ? https://patreon.com/CliftonHicks I learned "Boat's Up the River" from a recording of North Carolina banjoist, Ola Belle Reed. My 1888 Luscomb banjo (by Thompson & Odell) is tuned gCGCD relative, fB♭FB♭C actual. Richard McLain (Glade City Rounders) tells me that Reed actually played this song in f# D F# A D. It should be noted that this tuning is interchangeable with gCGCD; i.e. any tune you can play in one tuning can be played in the other just as well. If you'd like to support my work...
