World traveling fingerstyle guitarist Pat Kirtley presents 17 solo guitar arrangements of traditional Irish tunes including a few original compositions in the same vein by himself, Pierre Bensusan, and Duck Baker. As all of the tunes in this 1997 recording were arranged in altered tunings (DADGAD, EADEAE or DADEAD), each appears in both standard notation and tablature with insightful performance notes. In general, these transcriptions from Pat Kirtley’s 1997 album of the same title are extremely accurate; The Red-Haired Boy, however, played as a duet with Steve Rector on the album - appears as a solo arrangement in this book. Recommended for the intermediate to advanced player, the author provides insightful performance notes for each tune.

You'll gain insights into Tommy's playing style through note-for-note notation and tablature transcribed by Mark Pritcher who has added suggested chord progressions to each tune to serve as a harmonic guide to the player. In addition, detailed performance notes and select chord grid diagrams further enhance accessibility to the works of this masterful guitar tunesmith. Tommy's music incorporates thumbpicking, jazzy single lines, chord-melody arranging techniques, complex use of harmonics and more. Playing through this collection will give you a whole new appreciation for your guitar!
