Jenny Get The Kitty

Betty and Banjo

Listen to Jenny Get The Kitty”

This tune is named for our friend, Jennifer Crandall, who made her first visit to our house many years ago. 

During the stay, Jennifer became entranced with Betty, a beautiful long-haired white cat.

Having recently mastered the mechanics of walking and still being small enough to reach the cat without bending over, Jennifer spent the afternoon going from room to room beside Betty, petting her all the while. It was a lovely arrangement that made both of them very happy. 

Sometime later, while screwing around with odd banjo tunings, this piece emerged from some experimentation with the good old Dropped D, aDADE. In this case, the first string is tightened up to an F.
