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.
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.
Two tablatures were added to the store.

My transcription of Jerry Douglas’s break on Blackberry Blossom was added to the store.
A famous Jerry Douglas break which he cut on Tony Rice’s album Manzanita. This is my reproduction of this tune as I was teaching it at my Resoland workshop dedicated to early Jerry Douglas’s work. You can watch my video playing this groundbreaking solo on my Classroom page.
A tablature of my arrangement of fiddle tune Whistling Rufus was added to the store.
I learned this one from a solo record of Stuart Duncan and arranged it for the Dobro. I think it suits the reso really well.
