Book Reviews of The Carter Family Collection
Book Review: Superbly accurate transcriptions
Summary: 5 Stars
This guy has an amazing ear. When you listen to the recordings over and over again with the transcriptions in front of you, you can eventually get to where you can net out the autoharp ground and hear the individual notes on Maybelle's guitar. With the exception of simplifying the rhythm of the solos these are all spot on. That's pretty amazing. Tabs and notes are shown for all of the solos.
Even if you don't really want to learn the Carter catalog, the book is still useful for picking up licks here and there. Once you start Carter-picking (with a thump and a single finger pick) you'll use it every now and again. It's a very intuitive style of play once you get it down, and there's no better way to get it down than to learn three or four classic solos.
