TUNE SAMPLES

Blue Ridge Mountain Blues    

Twinkle Little Star

Here's a two-tune preview for those who might soon become members.

Members have password-protected access to the complete set of Tunes Packages. If you forgot your password, contact one of the board members via the Contact Us link to the left.

Ray Mathes, guitarist and fiddler, has been recording our jam sessions and creating packages for each tune that include:

  1. NOTATION
  2. CHORDS
  3. LYRICS (when available)
  4. MP3
  5. MIDI

These first two above are available to all visitors and come from our slow jam of January 18 at Two Rivers Mansion, where we hold slow jams the first and third Thursday of each month. This session was led by Martin Fisher as part of a new program launched by NOTSBA President Jim Hornsby to have advanced players serve as guides at the each third Thursday jam.

These are old-time. They aren't the contest style or bluegrass versions you might have come across. Old-time is what we do in NOTSBA.

Enjoy. And, if you aren't a member yet, give it some thought. There are more of these to come, but they'll be for members only.
