Recently REVISED! Ten of the most popular vocal songs from the greats of bluegrass – selections by Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, Ralph Stanley, Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & The New South, The Osborne Brothers. These are the songs played in every jam session, a MUST for any bluegrass banjo player’s repertoire.
These arrangements are at intermediate level. Where possible, the right hand rolls from the beginner arrangements (shown at left) remain intact, but slides, hammers-on and pull-offs are added, plus up-the-neck solos are added to many selections. Songs are also presented in the accepted keys and tunings, (two arrangements in C tuning). Includes slow-fast demonstration CD recording.
