Jerry Douglas

Nashville Skyline Rag, John Henry

Two tablatures of Jerry Douglas’s breaks were added to the store.

The first one is an early Jerry Douglas’s break of Nashville Skyline Rag written by Bob Dylan as recorded on J.D. Crowe and The New South – Holiday in Japan album.

The second one is an excellent Jerry’s break on John Henry, a tune recorded by Carl Jackson on his 1990 album Banjo Man: A Tribute To Earl Scruggs.

Both tunes are provided in pdf for printing and pg (Guitar Pro) for listening.

Mountain Slide

A new tune by Mike Auldridge was added to the store. Mountain Slide is an interesting tune in EBDgbd tuning from the 1976 “Mike Auldridge” album. It switches 3 keys (D, A, E). This one is a great example of Mike’s mastery. (pdf+gp)

As an addition to the pdf file for printing, I included also a gp file (a Guitar Pro file) where you can play and listen to the tablature.

You can also watch me playing the song on my Classroom page or my YouTube channel.
