The Banjo Song Book

By

Ross Nickerson

12 popular 5-string banjo tunes in tablature with accompanying CD to learn from.

The Banjo SongBook has just been revised with three new tunes and a top quality re-recorded CD with the songs at played at three speeds for easy learning. Accents inserted for melody notes, improved tablature, and more.

Songs included are:

Dueling Banjos, Wreck of the Old 97, Rocky Top, Bill Cheatum, Reuben's Train, Ballad of Jed Clampett, Foggy Mountain Breakdown, Old Joe Clark, She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain, Will The Circle Be Unbroken, Rolling in My Sweet Baby's Arms and bonus song; America The Beautiful.

The arrangements of these songs are all rooted in the Earl Scruggs style and accent the melody. They are great for students at a beginning and intermediate level that want to expand their repertoire with some easy to play arrangements of popular five string banjo tunes. They aren't terribly complex but they sound great.

All the songs include easy to read tablature and a CD recording of each song to hear the banjo at a slow, medium and fast tempo.

A top quality CD for the Banjo SongBook just re-recorded with Ross Nickerson performing the songs at three speeds for easy learning.

Available in DVD!
