BLUES BANJO



Just to complete the question. And hopefully to ensure it gets picked up easily in an internet search.



The book can be seen here

That Fred Sokolow is a top music educator -- everything from slide guitar to ukulele to, it appears blues banjo. I have a few of his far flung books and videos and he's pretty good. I have no doubt this is a fine resource.

Do you know if this book deals with clawhammer or 3-finger blues picking?  I've adapted a couple of Muddy Water's songs to CH, and I would like a short cut to more blues songs.

Just a guess but I bet neither; blues likely requires a hybrid style that takes on bits of both styles and others as well --

Sherrie, maybe give us some detailed info after you have worked with this material awhile, ok?
