gcoover Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Just barely in time for St. Patrick's Day, the long-awaited 75 More Irish Session Tunes for Anglo Concertina is finally out in paperback and Kindle! With regular music notation and the same button number tab system as the previous session tune book (and other Rollston Press books), but this time every tune has the benefit of being reviewed by Irish concertina master Ernestine Healy who has gone through every tune and made edits and suggestions as to how to play it in true Irish style.

Parker135 Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Is this single note melody or are chords annotated as well?
Notemaker Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Have the first book. Excellent! Will get this too. Gary, have you seen 'Walton's ; 110 Irish Concertina Tunes Vol 1 by Aogan Lynch' ? It is for Anglo, BTW, but lacks a Tab. How about working those into your series on Irish Anglo Tunes?
