Crazy 'Bout A Lady - A Jesse Fuller song - Marc Nerenberg - Stroke Recovery Video # 57

This video marks a watershed moment in my recovery from my stroke 10 months ago that initially left me with an almost non-functional right hand and arm. I've been working assiduously since then at regaining all the banjo techniques I used before my stroke, and they've been slowly coming back bit by bit. I used to have a "signature" playing style in which I integrated clawhammer, fingerpicking, and up/down strumming into a single hybrid playing style. Until now, I have been unable to replicate that style, and it has been my biggest source of frustration. Well, here it is - as of a few days ago I began to be able to do it again, and I've now been working at it, and it's getting better day by day. I know it will probably take months until it really feels natural and automatic again, but I have finally been able to take the first step, and actually be able to do it at all! I also manage to throw in another unusual technique in this video, doing a full barre pull-off with my left hand every time I come off the barre chord at the 8th fret. It also took some work to get the right and left hands coordinated at that spot. I've been working on this song on and off since I last recorded it in a clawhammer version on 19 February 2020 (under the title "You're No Good" -Stroke Recovery Video 53), here: https://youtu.be/2-DBItmMfPU and I can see significant progress in my playing of this in the 17 days since then. In fact, I recorded this current version twice, on successive days, and I see visible progress between those two days. This, the second of those two videos, was recorded on 6 March 2020, on a 1927 Whyte Laydie banjo tuned eCGCE, with a capo at the 2nd fret changing the actual tuning to eDADF# - using a G harmonica played cross-keyed in D.
