Notes: As Butch Robins said, Bill Keith's playing changed the landscape for bluegrass banjo players. Salt Creek is one of his seminal pieces. In the first break I have tabbed my interpretation of some of Bill's ideas, and the second break is how I tend to play the tune.

Notes: My interpretation of Bill Keith's break on this mandolin piece. Transcribed from a live recording at Bern, Switzerland, 4/15/77. Capo at 2. Performance notes: This may or may not be how Bill fingered it, but it was the easiest way for me to get the notes. in measures 3, 11, and 27, barre with the index finger on the 9th fret, and use the ring to get the notes on the 11th fret.

Notes: Notes: I have loved this tune since I first heard the Country Gentlemen play it in the 1960s, along with versions by, among others, the Stanley Brothers as well as J. D. Crowe and Ricky Wasson in Crowe's final album. The tablature I have posted in the Tab Archive is pretty straightforward except for a lick in measure 16 that I may have borrowed from Bill Emerson.

Angeline Baker in drop C

Genre: Bluegrass  Style: Bluegrass (Scruggs)   Key: D  Tuning: Drop C (gCGBD)  Difficulty: Intermediate
Posted by corcoran, updated: 11/15/2023
Download: TABLEDIT

Notes: Written by Stephen Foster and published in 1850, it is an oldie but goodie. After fooling with different tunings, I settled on drop C, capoed up 2 to D. Thus you get the nice resonate sound of that low 4th string. Note that many people play it with the B part first, whereas my tab is based on the arrangement by the Nashville Bluegrass Band.
