You don't look like an Old woman. Sound great Jim just like it is. Prine's first record is great one of my favorites.

Here's is a really good list of Prine tunes for anyone interested.

Thanks Unc. Yeah I usually do this on guitar but since you and Linda just did Paradise I had to do a quick change of songs! Couldn't figure out how to clawhammer it so switched to 2 finger method.

One of the great songs.   Mr Prine.   I don't recall hearing this on banjer.    Sure works with you doing it.   Nice.
