Skip James was one
of the most influential
early Bluesmen, but his
importance as a stylist
remained undiscovered
until he was brought out
of a long retirement by
the Folk/Blues revival of
the early 1960â??s. Born
in 1902 and raised in
Bentonia, Nehemiah Curtis
James was brought up in a
religious family: his
father was a bootlegger
who reformed and became a
Baptist preacher. Skip
learned piano in school
but picked up guitar from
his friend Henry Stuckey.
In 1931 Skip was picked
up by a scout for
Paramount Records and he
cut 26 tracks, of which
18 were released, in a
two day session at their
Grafton, Wisconsin
studios. These recordings
presented a unique and
haunting genius that
influenced legendary
bluesmen as Robert
Johnson, Kansas Joe McCoy
and Johnny Temple. But
the recordings sold
poorly, having been
released during the Great
Depression, and he
drifted into
obscurity.
<
span style=font-family:
Arial;> We have included
as online downloads
Skipâ??s 1931
recordings. The crackling
sound of these rare
recordings cannot obscure
the brilliance of this
seminal Blues
master.
After over 30
yearâ??s retirement from
music, Skip was
rediscovered by Blues
enthusiasts Bill Barth,
John Fahey and Henry
Vestine. They persuaded
Skip to appear at the
Newport Folk Festival in
1964, where his
renditions of his old
songs were still powerful
and moving. His
performances as well as
his old and new
recordings influenced a
generation of new
musicians: Eric Clapton,
Alan Wilson of Canned
Heat, Cream, Deep Purple,
Chris Thomas King, Alvin
Youngblood Hart, Derek
Trucks, Beck, Big Sugar,
John Martyn, Lucinda
Williams and Rory Block
to name a
few.
Books on
legendary Blues musicians
written by white
musicologists tend to
offer a subjective
perspective on how the
artists felt, thought or
reacted. A tainted
picture is captured that
has more to do with the
writerâ??s social and
musical experiences. This
autobiography is
different. The words,
thoughts and feelings
come directly from the
artistâ??s lips. This is
the story of Nehemiah
â??Skipâ? James told
by Nehemiah â??Skipâ?
James.

El McMeen
has authored many guitar
books for Mel Bay
Publications, but this
book holds a special
place in his heart. This
cutting-edge collection
includes melodic,
challenging, and
exuberant band marches
carefully arranged for
fingerstyle guitar. The
book contains
arrangements of seven
marches including six by
John Philip Sousa , many
of which are in various
open tunings. These
pieces are challenging
and geared for
intermediate-advanced and
advanced guitarists.
There are so many great
melodies in this
collection?guitarists can
camp on sections of
pieces that they enjoy or
tackle the pieces in
their entirety. The book
also contains a
discussion by El McMeen
on his selection and
arrangement process.
Includes access to online
audio.

Adam Granger
self-published the first
edition of
Grangerâ??s Fiddle
Tunes for Guitar in
1979. A second edition
was published in 1994.
Now Mel Bay Publications
presents the third
edition of the
book.
This 236-page book
is the most extensive and
best-documented
collection of fiddle
tunes for the flatpicking
guitar player in
existence, and includes
reels, hoedowns,
hornpipes, rags,
breakdowns, jigs and
slip-jigs, presented in
Southern, Northern,
Irish, Canadian, Texas
and Old-time
styles.
There are 508
fiddle tunes referenced
under 2500 titles and
alternate titles. The
titles are fully indexed,
making the book doubly
valuable as a reference
book and a source
book.
In this new
edition, all tunes are
typeset, instead of being
handwritten as they were
in the previous editions,
making the tabs easier to
read.
The tunes in
Grangerâ??s Fiddle
Tunes for Guitar are
presented in Easytab, a
streamlined tablature
notation system designed
by Adam specifically for
fiddle
tunes.
The book comes
with a link which gives
access to mp3 recordings
by Adam of all 508 tunes,
each played once at a
moderate tempo, with
rhythm on one channel and
lead on the
other.
Also included in
Grangerâ??s Fiddle
Tunes for Guitar are
instructions for reading
Easytab, descriptions of
tune types presented in
the book, and primers on
traditional flatpicking
and rhythm guitar.
Additionally, there are
sections on timing,
ornamentation, technique,
and fingering, as well as
information on tune
sources and a history of
the
collection.
Mel Bay also
offers The Granger
Collection, by Bill
Nicholson, the same 508
tunes in standard music
notation.
