Dandy Jim of Caroline, a celebrated Ethopian melody.
This tune was a "golden oldie" by the 1860's. These Irish jigs come from the playing of Frank B. Converse, and were published in his 1865 "New and Complete Method for the Banjo, With or Without a Master."

Great! I'm looking forward to it! If anyone hasn't watched Carl and Kyle play, you should direct yourself to the videos above or to youtube and look them up! They are wonderful, and better yet, watch them play together live!
