The more I play these and look them over, the more I appreciate this a a really good simple collection...easy tunes that leave your diginity intact. So many familiar themes skillfully whittled down to their essence.

I don't know if I'd call it "Easy", but these are certainly worthwhile tunes to play....nothing super acrobatic involved. Easier than slugging through the Analytical. Interesting that he finally let go of Stroke Style inclusion within a volume, but his tune choices reflect a fondness of the "old style". Clean editing in fingerings, from what I've encountered.

Very nice link - it also includes the Gumbo Chaff "Complete Preceptor for the Banjo" mentioned in the Weindlich anthology. I've never seen this anywhere (though maybe I haven't looked in the right places).

And that is just to "play" with the book. If I find something I want to work up, it's to the metronome and music stand.
