    Default You're in the Band by Cynthia Sayer

    I'd been looking forward to this getting here and it came today. "The Real Experience of Playing in a Traditional Jazz/Hot Jazz Band", For All Musicians An Authentic Early Jazz Play-Along".

    For those of us laboring in the wilderness with little chance to jam, material like this is wonderful. Of the stuff i have used this is easily the best with pages of info before you get to the tunes and tips and notes for each tune.

    Though written by someone best known for her work on the banjo it's "For All Musicians". I can already see using the chord studies from Don Sternberg's book along with it.

    Thank you,

    Ryk

    Hello,

    This is not an intentional bump to my own thread ........ just a nod to other mandolin players.

    As anyone who has has the pleasure and delight ... and the challenge ... of a workshop with Don Stiernberg knows: Don considers the mandolin the greatest of all musical instruments. (Well said sir!) And i think that extends to those of us with some devotion to the instrument. A similar post was put in two banjo forums and garnered way fewer views.

    Good on yuh ladies and gentlemen of the 8-string wonder!
