Today is the 22nd anniversary of the passing of Jethro Burns. For some time I have been working with Mike O'Connell and Rob Coleman to make available another installment of "Lessons with Jethro" tapes. Mike is an accomplished player from the Chicago area and he agreed to let me digitize and publish his lesson tapes on the Internet. Rob Coleman, who so generously has hosted the tapes of my lessons, agreed to host these as well. This is our tribute to Jethro.
All the lessons can be accessed on the same page, either by going to the Mandozine.com website, select Jethro Burns Info from the Quick Links menu and then select Lessons with Jethro, or you can click on robcoleman.com/jethro/index.html (or copy/paste it into your browser).
The material on these latest released lessons are absolutely amazing. Jethro had a few more years of teaching behind him and Mike was an advanced student. If you can identify the 2 or 3 missing titles, let me know. Neither Mike nor Don Stiernberg knew what they were.
Enjoy! And play with the same light hearted spirit that was Jethro.
