Re: Guitar or FiddleTracks

It's very frustrating here. I've run into any number of guitar and fiddle players, but can't seem to get them get together and play.

I'd like to learn guitar, but my spare time for music is pretty well taken up with accordion. Who would have thought that 10 little buttons could be so difficult.

Link #1 is to the Tracy Schwartz website where he has practice tapes for:

Cherokee Waltz, Lovebridge Waltz, Midnight Waltz, Jolie Blond,
Allons a Lafayette, Jongle a Moi, Lacassine Special, 'Ti Galop Pour la Pointe aux Pins.

He plays them both slow and up to speed. One tape in C/G and one in D/A. He plays the fiddle and accordion lead and then has a guitar rhythm part where you can play lead.

Good luck.


Re: Guitar or FiddleTracks

Thanks for the link Bruce. Just what I'm looking for. I'll get a check out tomorrow for sure.

Man.. it would be tough without this forum for sure.
