Oooo, love that banjo. And what a cool song for it it shine. The fiddle is so Goldilocks good as is the mandolin. You give the whole song that old ragtime sound. Loved it, Arri.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Arri, fun rendition. Nice job on the banjo and guitar, and the BiaB backing sounds nice, too. This is a really obscure selection, nice that you found it and embraced it.

Thank you all. I found brilliant old public domain songs. Lost treasures, that are worth of brought up to listeners again - even produced with my limited skills.

Ari, this is a great version of that song.
Great vocal and backing tracks.
Super banjo and guitar playing.
You really captured that era
Sounds great

Thanks Mario. By the way, I use as a profile name my old nick name Brno ("bruuno") and as an artist name of my productions "Arri" (musicians shorten here so "arrangement"). My real first name is Esa (comes from The Bible: Esau, the first son), which in many cultures are supposed to be a femine name as it ends with the letter "a". Once in Brussels they were waiting for by name as their guest a female professor from Finland, but for their disapointment there came only a bearded man. So I learned to undersign Mr. Esa Blomberg.

Arri-

What a great version of Chasing Rainbows! When I was in the Army band, we had a Trad Jazz group that used to cover it. Sadly, no banjo player :-(
Very nice guitar solo!

Thanks Steve, but the solos from BiaB were played with fiddle and mandolin, not with guitar. In the intro it was me playing tenor banjo. Glad you liked it anyway.
