Re: Parking lot pickers book
Geez, I've been playing music for over forty years and my experience is that evenly spaced published music is an exception, not a rule. It's the notes that tell you how much time each takes, not the width of the measure. Don't look at Pete Wiernick's Bluegrass Songbook or you'll have apoplexy and that book it a primary reference on how to play Bluegrass music.
This is not a beginning player's book. This is a book for people wanting more songs to sing beside Nine Pound Hammer and Let the Circle be Unbroken. Each song is a guide, not a recipe. It gives you the words, the flow of the chords and fundamental version of the tune to the song. That's plenty if you know how to play. If not, you need another book.
