American Treasures

These solo fingerstyle guitar arrangements cover a wide spectrum of American music. They include early hymns of the pilgrims, American Revolutionary war tunes, British folk ballads that later became colonial pop songs, sea chanteys, spirituals, Civil War tunes, pioneer frontier ballads, military hymns, and songs of patriotism. They were selected for their heartfelt melodies and their adaptability for solo instrumental guitar. While these arrangements seek to tap the rich polyphonic nature of the guitar, players of all levels well enjoy them and be richly rewarded with the music that is unleashed here. This collection offers an extensively researched musical snapshot of early America and a reminder of the amazing heritage of this great country. Written in standard notation and tablature.

Singing Rails

The story of the railroad is an essential part of American history. There were few aspects of 19th century American life untouched by the railroad. The songs, stories, and even the jokes of the railroad all play part in telling its history. Although no one can say precisely when the first railroad stories and jokes were told, railroad music was published in Baltimore as early as 1828. Singing Rails is itself like a train. Each page is a boxcar or passenger car loaded with the songs, the jokes, and the stories of the people who lived the railroading life. Period photographs, etchings, playbills, and amusing anecdotes are combined with melodies and complete lyrics to create this engaging collection. While highly recommended for the history or railroad buff, this book should appeal to anyone who appreciates a good tune or a good yarn. From the true story of Casey Jones to the Wabash Cannonball, all of the tunes in this specialty songbook appear in guitar-friendly keys perfect for jam sessions. Includes a brief dictionary of railroad slang. The music includes melody lines in standard notation, guitar chords, and complete lyrics for 27 songs. The companion Native Ground CD includes the author and friends performing 14 songs from the book with vocals, clawhammer banjo, bluegrass banjo, banjo-guitar, banjo-mandolin, guitar, fiddle, mandolin, harmonica, slide guitar, jug, washboard, harmonica, slide guitar, jug.
