Jerusalem Ridge was composed by Bill Monroe in the Key of A minor. Here it is written for the 5-String in A minor without retuning the banjo.
Recently, I was asked to reprint my arrangement for Jerusalem Ridge in A minor, which is to be played on the banjo without using a capo. This is an excellent tune to demonstrate how a song is based upon the Natural Minor Scale without retuning the banjo. There are four pages in this column:

Home Sweet Home in the Key of G. This beautiful, classic banjo song is one that all banjo players should know.
A song from Tom T. Hall that we loved to do!
Three variations for intermediate and advanced players!
Great show tune for the banjo and mandolin!
