Recently I became fascinated by a construction method for #Banjo rims that goes back to mid 19th century and is now known as the Ashborn rim.
These instruments were constructed by James Ashborn. They were very modern and have an elegant design that somehow reminds me of furniture from the following "mid century", the 20th century.
The FRETS.COM Museum shows many details of an Ashborn banjo from 1952 - including the distinctive rim flange.

Mark Twain is sometimes wrongly credited with a quote about gentlemen and banjos. He never said it. He said:
> "When you want genuine music—music that will come right home to you like a bad quarter, suffuse your system like strychnine whisky, [...] ramify your whole constitution like the measles, and break out on your hide like the pin-feather pimples on a picked goose,—when you want all this, just smash your piano, and invoke the glory-beaming #banjo!"

Both Brad and Nora play "Chilly Winds" in a style and arrangement that goes back to Bertie Mae Dickens (1902/3-1994), one of the grand old female banjo players.
I could not find a recording of Chilly Winds by Bertie Mae, but here's a video of a her playing "Cleveland Marching to WH" in "lyrical two-finger picking style" (B. Leftwich).
It's from a series of recording sessions Bertie did with Alice Gerrard in the 80s

It's #BanjoFriday again and today it's a direct follow-up to last week's edition.
Nora Brown learned her version of "Chilly Winds" from #banjo player and teacher Brad Leftwich, who did record the song himself in 2020.

And now comes the bonus: Nora Brown recorded "Chilly Winds" before, when she was a tiny bit younger than now. 😊

I have to be careful to not just post Nora Brown videos on every #BanjoFriday. But her music is just pure MAGIC as her new video for WesternAF proves again.
Watch it, listen and be moved!
Then if you like read on here for some not really relevant #Banjo nerd stuff.
