<p>Thanks for the scans of this well worth playing, banjo arrangement of Pryor's trombone showcase tune Joel. It is interesting that only Clifford Essex included the 'trombone slides' imitations in his arrangement, I used to play this a lot in the 1980s with Paul Whyman and the imitation of the trombone glissandi on the banjo 4th string always raised a laugh with all kinds of audiences and it is these trombone noises which really make this tune.

<p>Thanks for the scans of this well worth playing, banjo arrangement of Pryor's trombone showcase tune Joel. It is interesting that only Clifford Essex included the 'trombone slides' imitations in his arrangement, I used to play this a lot in the 1980s with Paul Whyman and the imitation of the trombone glissandi on the banjo 4th string always raised a laugh with all kinds of audiences and it is these trombone noises which really make this tune. You have to hit the 4th string hard and slide the first finger up and down on the 4th string to make the trombone imitations effective. Arthur Pryor was the lead/1st trombone player in Sousa's band and obviously exploited the comic side of the instrument as many others have done before and since.</p> tag:classic-banjo.ning.com,2022-09-21:2667446:Comment:1906022022-09-21T00:53:42.314ZJoel Hookshttps://classic-banjo.ning.com/profile/deuceswilde
