by Alan Johnson

SKU: 201-25
$15.00 USD
$28.00 USD
$15.00 USD
Book/CD pack. 70 Celtic tunes that intermediate banjo players can manage. These difficult Irish and Scottish melodies usually require a combination of styles and right hand techniques. Johnson's approach is to render the accurate basic melody with only a minimum of left hand techniques. The difficult hammers, pulls and slides can then be added later. Includes playing tips for each tune. "The Navvy on the Line," "McFadden's Handsome Daughter," "The Banshee," "The Maid Behind the Bar," "Ger the Rigger," "Old Hag You Have Killed Me," "Lark in the Morning," dozens of others. All tunes demonstrated on the CD. Tablature only. Comb-bound. 88 pp.
