"This is not only one of the best of the war books, it is a record of cooperative courage achieved by a group of men in a manner wholly American." At the outbreak of the Second World War U.S.S. Quail was in the Philippines sweeping mines to provide access for American shipping to South Harbor, Corregidor. Damaged by enemy bombs and guns during the Japanese invasion of the island, Lieutenant Commander John Morrill and his fellow men decided to make the decision to scuttle their ship rather than allow it to be captured. This led them to begin one of the most daring escapes of the Second World War.

Chord melody is a very common sound in jazz. There are many books, videos and web sites to teach this for pianists and guitarists, but notfor mandolin. Thus the need for this book.Chord melody is often played using drop 2 chord voicings (see chapter 1 for an explanation of what these are). Drop 2 works very well, so anyone wanting to get into this important part of jazz should study drop 2 chord voicings. In chord melody, the melody note is on top and the rest of the notes of the chord are underneath the melody note. This makes the melody easy to hear and understand and allows us plenty of color to add beneath the melody. In this book, we will learn drop 2 chord voicings first, sections 1 through 4. Section 5 will show how to use drop 2 chords for chord melody arrangements and chord soloing.This book has written music notation and tablature. They are both written for 5 string mandolin (tuned CGDAE low to high). However, onecan easily use these examples for 4 or 8 stringed mandolins (tuned GDAE low to high), by just ignoring the 5th string notes in the tab and anything written below the open G string on 4 or 8 stringed mandolins.

Just like Volume 1, Volume 2 has 17 more Texas style fiddle tunes as played by top fiddlers. In music notation.

The purpose of this book is to give players that don't currently improvise a step by step method to begin improvising. This can also be used by players who want to improve their improvising, players whowant a method to study improvising or players wishing to add more musical ideas to their improvising.
