The Jerry Book
December 31st, 2024
The Jerry Book isn’t only for fans of Jerry Garcia’s banjo playing with Old & In The Way. It’s also a master class in Scruggs style backup playing.
I’ve spent countless hours transcribing Jerry’s banjo playing and this book is the culmination of those efforts.
As you can see from the contents page, the book includes all of the songs from the original Old & In The Way album as well as Old & In The Way Breakdown from the bootleg: The Boarding House, San Francisco, CA. 7/23/73
Package includes eBook in PDF format (104 pages). Links to download the 39 MP3 files as well as all 39 tabs in TablEdit format. Instantly delivered to your email upon order completion.

Big Mon (Guitar Tab + Slow Jam)
May 28th, 2021Bill Monroe’s tune Big Mon is a staple among Bluegrass jam sessions.
This video plays the melody twice. Once at the beginning and once at the end. In between there are four choruses for you to jam over on any instrument you like.
This song is usually played quite fast but this slow jam is about 50% slower than the usual tempo.
