There's been quite a bit of talk here recently about Bluegrass playing on
harp. I came across this book/cd combo.
This is the kind of teaching material I buy for myself although I haven't
yet gotten one for BlueGrass since I don't play diatonic and amn't a fast
enough player. I'm also stuck at home a lot so these kinds of teaching
materials work for me. It IS specifically for guitar, but I already buy most of
mine for guitar, piano, saxophone, etc. - so I can play along WITH the
instrument as well as use them as backing tracks (duets, technically) for my
own chromatic play.

Since you're getting not only a Song Book but a CD with each tune at normal
speed AND slowed down - it's a fairly easy way to upload into your
computer, download to I-Tunes and then to your Ipod if you have one for daily
practice, or just use in a CD player if you don't have an Ipod. Some of the
CD's also work directly with Macs and PC's (such as the Lennon/McCartney one
below). There's a nice selection from this Seller although I haven't yet
bought from them. The cost is similar to that of a regular music CD.
At least it might give some of those new but interested a background in
having a few solid BG songs in preparation for sitting in at BlueGrass jams
and a feel for how to play along with the guitar?
Big bonus for anyone who plays harp in a rack with guitar.
I've no idea if the tabs mentioned here work for harp though. (You can ask
the Seller). My interest in the books is mainly for lyrics and I can read
the music somewhat (for piano).
The following are what would be MY interest (same seller - Powerhouse
