I made my first banjo out of a guitar neck and a tin can mama used to make biscuits in. And the first thing I learnt on that was Old John Booker - You Call That Gone. - Gus Cannon, Broadcasting the Blues, Document Records

Hi all,
I believe Bo Weavil Jackson/Sam Butler falls in this category, with all of his slide blues played in the conventional position and all of his slide religious numbers played lap-style.
All best,
Johnm
