Mandolin Instruction, Old Time, Country, and Fiddle Tunes
Mandolin Instruction, Old Time, Country & Fiddle Tunes by Mike Holmes. First released on Folkways, it has been re-released by Smithsonian-Folkways. All tunes played slowly and up-to-speed solo, plus all tunes played in a stringband setting (Reed Martin plays banjo, Mike Rivers on guitar) with mandolin on separate track so you can play along with just the accompaniment. Tune list below. 44 page book contains tablature to each tune, plus dozens of vintage photographs and ads. Email Mike Holmes, or call (774) 207-0284.
