Take a mandolin lesson from the man Alison Krause called "... absolutely one of the finest musicians to exist in the history of the world." On this in-depth CD lesson, Sam Bush teaches complete solos to eight traditional and original tunes, each one jam-packed with licks, runs and musical variations. Sam is a careful and patient instructor, and he analyzes each piece in detail, adding special playing tips for aspiring mandolinists at all levels: chord progressions, fingerings, fancy licks, drones and double-stops, chromatic runs, harmony parts and improvised variations.
The powerful repertoire tunes you'll learn from this comprehensive lesson are "Cotton Patch Rag," "Tom & Jerry," "Leather Britches," "Lime Rock," "Banjalin," "Diadem," "Norman and Nancy," and "Russian Rag."
