This book and its companion recording give an insight into some of the
many guitar styles that have been developed to accompany Irish music.
The author assumes a basic understanding of guitar chords and strumming
ability but no specific knowledge of Irish music. He delves into DADGAD,
dropped D and double dropped D tunings and several different ways of
playing in each tuning. Although the range of styles presented is not
exhaustive, by analyzing the styles which are presented, the author
covers all of the elements that go into making any style, thereby
leaving you better equipped to both develop your own style and figure
out the subtleties of any other style you may come across. The companion
recording is essential to understanding.
