Dave Van Ronk is an icon in the story of fingerstyle guitar. When I was learning the roadmaps of fingerpick-ing I found it essential to learn Dave’s arrangements. In this first series of lessons Dave presents a wide selection of his folk and blues arrangements.

For the intermediate guitarist. 32 page tab/music book with three compact discs.

LESSON ONE: The alternating bass technique is presented with four arrangements: Green Green Rocky Road, Kansas City Blues, Stackerlee and Saturday Night Shuffle.
