The island of Cape Breton and its close neighbor, Prince Edward Island in eastern Canada are home to two of the oldest, strongest, and most vibrant fiddling traditions in North America. Cape Breton gave rise to a professional Celtic-based fiddling scene to rival anything coming out of Scotland and Ireland. Prince Edward Island’s traditional fiddlers developed lively, idiosyncratic styles every bit as musically compelling as anything you’ll hear on archival recordings of iconic American old-time fiddlers from the Appalachians. This book features 136 tunes from these two distinct but related fiddling traditions, collected by the author directly from master fiddlers, and arranged note-for-note for clawhammer banjo with as much flavor and nuance as possible. These settings of reels, hornpipes, jigs, marches, strathspeys, airs, and other fiddle tunes are all eminently playable and fully benefit from the author’s half-century of experience playing banjo, arranging for banjo, writing banjo instruction books, and researching fiddle-music traditions.

Here’s what you’ll find in this volume.

• 136 fiddle tunes arranged for clawhammer banjo in clear tablature
• Over 40 musical examples and exercises
• Instruction on basic and advanced techniques
• Fingering diagrams and detailed fingering suggestions
• A systematic approach to playing up-the-neck
• A thorough treatment of playing triplets, grace notes, and other characteristic ornaments in clawhammer
• Guides on how to approach playing various kinds of fiddle tunes
• A framework for understanding the modes encountered in fiddle music
• Historical notes on the tunes and musical traditions
• Biographical information on source fiddlers
• 169 audio illustrations available online

Note: Most audio illustrations for the tunes in this book are drawn directly from the author’s CDs, Devil in the Kitchen, Frails and Frolics, Island Boy, and Northern Banjo.

TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEARCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER. Thanks, John. The narrator explains that he had lived most of his life in Texas along the Frio River but that a string of failed relationships with women in that state that ended disastrously (such as going insane, sending the law after him and walking out before the honeymoon) prompted him to flee to Tennessee; he still relives his more pleasant times in Texas by way of Transcendental Meditation each night. The song is known for its Western Swing style rhythm.

Instrumental version of my improvisation on Louis MacNeiceis Bagpipe Music

The original poem is: 

It's no go the merry-go-round, it's no go the rickshaw,
All we want is a limousine and a ticket for the peepshow.
Their knickers are made of crêpe-de-chine, their shoes are made of python,
Their halls are lined with tiger rugs and their walls with heads of bison.

John MacDonald found a corpse, put it under the sofa,
Waited till it came to life and hit it with a poker,
Sold its eyes for souvenirs, sold its blood for whiskey,
Kept its bones for dumb-bells to use when he was fifty.

It's no go the Yogi-Man, it's no go Blavatsky,
All we want is a bank balance and a bit of skirt in a taxi.

Annie MacDougall went to milk, caught her foot in the heather,
Woke to hear a dance record playing of Old Vienna.
It's no go your maidenheads, it's no go your culture,
All we want is a Dunlop tyre and the devil mend the puncture.

The Laird o' Phelps spent Hogmanay declaring he was sober,
Counted his feet to prove the fact and found he had one foot over.
Mrs Carmichael had her fifth, looked at the job with repulsion,
Said to the midwife 'Take it away; I'm through with overproduction'.

It's no go the gossip column, it's no go the Ceilidh,
All we want is a mother's help and a sugar-stick for the baby.
Willie Murray cut his thumb, couldn't count the damage,
Took the hide of an Ayrshire cow and used it for a bandage.
His brother caught three hundred cran when the seas were lavish,
Threw the bleeders back in the sea and went upon the parish.

It's no go the Herring Board, it's no go the Bible,
All we want is a packet of fags when our hands are idle.

It's no go the picture palace, it's no go the stadium,
It's no go the country cot with a pot of pink geraniums,
It's no go the Government grants, it's no go the elections,
Sit on your arse for fifty years and hang your hat on a pension.

It's no go my honey love, it's no go my poppet;
Work your hands from day to day, the winds will blow the profit.
The glass is falling hour by hour, the glass will fall for ever,
But if you break the bloody glass you won't hold up the weather.

Composed by Christopher R. Brown. Christian,Gospel,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Score and parts. 92 pages. Christopher Brown #4601913. Published by Christopher Brown (A0.747194).

About the song: This anthem begins by compelling the listener and the performer to consider the parable of the hidden treasure and the pearl. The second verse reflects on David's superlative description of God's Word in Ps. 19. In his letter to the Philippians, Paul speaks of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ when compared to everything else in this life. The lyrics of this song are intended to echo these Truths, encourage the believer, and testify to the incomparable gift of entering into the Kingdom of God, understanding His Word, and being strengthened and set free to do the good works that He prepared in advance for us to do.

Can be performed with piano accompaniment only, OR with additional band members (rhythm chart included), OR with full orchestra.

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Like a treasure in a field,
Is the matchless worth of Christ.
For the kingdom of heaven, I give my life.
Like a pearl of great value,
Perfect and pure.
I leave it all behind ‘cause of this I’m sure.

Chorus 1
He called out my name,
And broke ev’ry chain,
Love so amazing, so divine!
He rescued my soul,
And made my heart whole,
Now I am His and He is mine!
I’m taking up my cross,
And I count it all as loss.
Nothing compares to what I have in the Lord.

Verse 2
More precious than gold,
Is the Word of the Lord.
Greater and higher than anything this world affords,
It is sweeter than honey,
Straight from the comb.
My delight is in Jesus, I no longer walk alone.

Chorus 2
He called out my name,
And broke ev’ry chain,
Love so amazing, so divine!
He rescued my soul,
And made my heart whole,
Now I am His and He is mine!
I’m taking up my cross
And I count it all as loss
Nothing compares to what I have in the Lord.

Bridge (x2)
In the Lord I find strength for every day,
In the Lord every fear is washed away.
In the Lord hope and peace are here to stay,
Whatever comes my way, I will lift my voice and say.

Key Change

Chorus 3
He called out my name,
And broke ev’ry chain,
Love so amazing, so divine!
He rescued my soul,
And made my heart whole,
Now I am His and He is mine!
I’m taking up my cross,
And I count it all as loss.
Nothing compares to what I have in the Lord.
Nothing compares to what I have in the Lord.
Nothing compares to what i have in the Lord.
