First Jams: UKULELE by Lee Drew Andrews. For Ukulele (Soprano). Improvisation. First Jams. Folk. Beginning. Book/CD Set. 24 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc (MB.21512BCD). ISBN 9780786678440. Folk. 8.75" x 11.75" inches. The First Jam series was created to give children and beginners of all ages a book of simple, common tunes to learn. These are standard Jam tunes in the Bluegrass/Old Time music styles. All the books in this series are written in the same keys; they can all be played together without any problems. So get your friends or family who play guitar, mandolin, banjo, ukulele, dulcimer or Dobro together, grab these books and start jamming. Improvisation -- Another idea behind writing the First Jam series was to provide a number of tunes that were easy to learn, but that are also a great to begin working on improvising. Each book in the series offers the melody for that particular instrument as well as back-up chords for another instrument to accompany you. Each song is represented in Tab, notation and chord symbols. The accompanying CD has two tracks for each song. The first playing the song with the melody line, the second track offers just the backup so you can play the melody over it or even improvise. Tunes include: Cripple Creek, Old Joe Clark, Will the Circle Be Unbroken and many more.

The Bard's Banjo: English Country Clawhammer Banjo Solos by Steve Harvey. For Banjo (5-String). Solos. Bill's Music Shelf. Folk. Intermediate-Advanced. Book + Online Audio. 36 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc (MB.20669). ISBN 9780786672493. Folk. 8.5" x 11" inches. Here is a book of tunes from the Elizabethan era -- the great period of English song -- set in tablature for the clawhammer banjo. At first glance, it is true, the songs of Shakespeare's day and the mountain banjo seem to be worlds apart. But the musical traditions are, in fact, related, as Elizabethan songs are the old world cousins of mountain tunes. As a result, Elizabethan tunes are a natural way to extend the mountain banjo repertoire for intermediate and advanced players. Their pedigree, their modal feel, the lilting rhythms, and the ease with which they can be adapted to the banjo argue the case. At the same time, they open the possibility for new sounds -- in particular new rhythms -- for the old instrument, pushing the banjo beyond unnatural limitations and giving it a new voice. Each section of the book is organized around a traditional mountain tuning, with a mountain song serving as a model of that tuning, illuminating the relationship between the two musical worlds. "The Bard's Banjo" is the first banjo instruction book devoted to the repertoire of Elizabethan song. Free audio downloads are available for use with this title from the publisher's website.
