Then after I'm pretty comfortable with it I'll see where I can add some flavor. So, I don't worry about them at all when learning the tune, I just play it straight. where I've ended up is exploiting opportunities on the guitar neck to add them. I would guess there's many ways to go about them. Nothing at all wrong with fingerstyle guitar, but this is a flatpciking forum :) Comment by Bryan Floyd on Decemat 5:27pm

Great stuff.ДЄll in all, both are great books for us flatpickers wanting to get into the celtic world, whereas most celtic guitar seems to be aimed for fingerstylists. Some of them would be preferred with a second guitar backup, but many are just fine for a solo guitar, mixing some melodies with chordings and also some crosspicking tunes.

The Kaufman collection is very good with a guitar backup (as is heard on the recordings that come with the books if purchased by seperate volumes - the complete encyclopedia does not come with the recordings), but there are many tunes in the Brennan collection that sound great just as solo guitar (as heard on the recordings that come with the book by download from the Mel Bay site). I also picked up Bill Brennans Irish, Scottish,В and Border Melodies for Flatpicking Guitar and this is a great collection as well. Still, this Kaufman collection is a great collection on tunes. I have never dwelled in the alternate tunings much other than a little bit of drop D, so I would like to try DADGAD some time. I'm just fine with standard tuning so I guess I fall into the former. Good for the picker that doesn't want to steer away from traditional tuning, and bad for celtic traditionalist thatВ prefers drop D and DADGAD. In the interim I picked up Steve Kaufman's Encyclopedia of Celtic Tunes for Flatpicking Guitar and there is soooo much material in there to keep one busy for years!! Everything is in standard tuning which may be both a good and bad thing. It's great to see more interested players in this. I just wanted to share some of this material to those as interested in this style of music as much as I am :) Comment by Kathy Barwick on Decemat 11:59am Here's some rhythm guitar for backing up Celtic and Irish players: I have also found a wealth of other published Celtic/Irish flatpicking books found here:ДЄnd some nice Steve Kaufman material here:ДЄnd there's still much more out there.
