HI Mr. Scruggs
I'm from Va and all of my grand parents through all of my great grands. Have play bugrass and country music. I play the guitar. But my uncle gave me a banjo (KENT) made back in the 60s to learn on. He had the book my cousin started with at that time. Which was Earl Scruggs and the Five Stringed Banjo. I have started playing and i got to were I can play the mixed rolls very well and I have picked a few gospel songs out as I came along. My question is: what can i do to improve on learning new songs as to getting my speed up. I don't have much time to pratice. But I want to play in church so I want to learn more bluegrass gospel songs. Do you have any advice? Next, I can't find any bluegrass Gospel web pages that have tabluture along with songs to pick and play. If you know of any please let me know were. I really do injoy your music so keep on pick'in and grin'in for me. Thanks, Billy
