Ban Jo

Since I've put most people through torture talking about the banjo, I figured this thread is where I should post the rough mix of the first song from my banjo power tri...er...quartet! Actually came out fairly polished for home studio punk rock stuff, but I sent it to my friend Silver from Winny Puhh for advice, so we'll see what he has to say. Sort of sets the tone for the rest of the songs I'll be doing.

And BTW, it IS safe for work...more or less.

Very punk. In a good way.

EDIT: Banjo Punk has been invented.

I wish I could take credit for it, but my friends from Estonia Winny Puhh did it already, although banjo's not on all their songs like it will be on mine. And in the 60's, some American servicemen had a band called The Monks in Germany that used banjo as well, and they were pretty punk for their day. Thx tho!

Went back to fix a couple things in the mix that were bothering me, like more banjo, bass and slightly clearer vocal. Also, thx to the collaborative efforts between @two fingers and me, I'm calling it Ol' Band Joe. Guess I better get used to people calling me Joe

Indeed, that's a fine name for a Jimmy

Was looking through Phil Chen's fakebook page after his passing. Saw this pic and thought of you.
