I just received this songbook today - I got it on clearance. A wonderful book by Sully Sullivan of tunes written for tenor banjo in Irish tuning. has tab on some songs,standard notation on others, (thankfully I can read music for it) been noodling with it this afternoon. $12 well spent!

Every Irish tune in the world is available at www.session.org. You can download midi, notation or ABCs. If you have a smart phone check out tune pal. You can dl notation for any tune to your phone by either title or recording a few seconds on the phone.

 

Cya!
