Who remembers Mike Bailey’s Mel Bay instructional banjo books?
Long time writer of Beginner’s Corner in BNL.
miiloo Yes! He was a writer there and did other instructional books! He is also my grandfather! I’m also searching for some of his articles from the news letter. I only found one online.
Books still available from mel bay.
Thank you Phil - MO! I have his books!

Here is BNL's Facebook page,, Sofia , Spencer Nitchie's daughter, runs it now. You can also contact Sofia Nitchie here on the hangout, , she's a member. Say hi to your grandfather for me - I used to use his one of his books when I gave banjo lessons.
