We've added three new tune lessons to the Intermediate section - Pretty Polly, Coke Oven March and Sugar Baby, as played by the great Dock Boggs. Tony brings them to you as a commemorative tribute to Mike Seeger, who was so instrumental in the revival of interest in Dock's playing. They're about midway down in the long list of Intermediate lessons, tabs included. Enjoy. We hope you'll get used to seeing cool new things, because we will keep them coming. More |
