The fact that it had banjo in the title drew me to this.

It's actually a song with all the usual non-PC lyrics. I thought I'd arrange it into an instrumental to hear what it would sound like. It's nothing special but makes quite a pleasant banjo solo and isn't too hard to play. The score and midi are in the library...Steve.

Interesting little tune...you're right, pleasant and not too hard. That last section is a bit odd to me...sounds like it doesn't belong to the tune somehow. Perhaps it was intended to segue into something else in the musical...

Hi Marc, if you read the lyrics of the song and the text on the score then the last section is intended as a dance at the end of all the action. As a piece of musical theatre, I suppose it makes sense. As it was on the score, I included it anyway.

This should take you to a copy of the original score.....Steve.

I suppose "anything goes" in a musical!

It does make sense that it is a 'dance movement'...and it all fits if you read the score, etc.

Well done again, Steve!
