    1 out of 5 stars Awful, waste of money.......2005-09-25

    To begin with this entire video is only 29 minutes long! As material on the tenor banjo can be hard find i got this and the only other one listed. Most Mel Bay videos are pretty simplistic, but this sets a new low. The only strum he shows is brushing your thumb, along with a few very basic chords (which you can find free off the web). There is nothing beyond that and nothing on the chord-melody technique that makes the tenor banjo style. Most of the time is filled by what looks like rest of his family thumb-strumming along on ukuleles to such hot hits as "long long ago" while he thumb-strums a guitar (yes, a guitar, which last time i checked was not a banjo). An incredibly lame excuse for a teaching video and in no way worth the price. The only other video i've found, by bud wachter on homespun, is excellent (see my other review). Unfortunately i opened this first, so don't repeat my mistake and Save your money !
