This is what I worked out from Etta Baker's 2-finger playing. The tuning is dDF#AD capoed up two frets to E.

thanks Chip! I think I'm gonna start recording some more 2 and 3 finger tunes and put them up when my finger heals.

Yeah, right on! I like your slight variations in the second part- they are giving me new ideas. This whole thing was a lot of fun for me Boxcar- so thanks to you for your part . I would say this recording is the final word.
It is a really fun tune in this tuning. Usually I like one part of tunes more than the other. Here both are a joy to fool around with.

This is lovely! I would like to be able to play this, but I'm only just starting out . . . and I don't think I could manage a retune of my banjo just yet . . . did you learn it by ear or do you happen to know if there is a tab available? Thanks for posting your recording!
