Adam Granger self-published the first edition of Granger??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar in 1979. A second edition was published in 1994. Now Mel Bay Publications presents the third edition of the book.
This 236-page book is the most extensive and best-documented collection of fiddle tunes for the flatpicking guitar player in existence, and includes reels, hoedowns, hornpipes, rags, breakdowns, jigs and slip-jigs, presented in Southern, Northern, Irish, Canadian, Texas and Old-time styles.
There are 508 fiddle tunes referenced under 2500 titles and alternate titles. The titles are fully indexed, making the book doubly valuable as a reference book and a source book.
In this new edition, all tunes are typeset, instead of being handwritten as they were in the previous editions, making the tabs easier to read.
The tunes in Granger??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar are presented in Easytab, a streamlined tablature notation system designed by Adam specifically for fiddle tunes.
The book comes with a link which gives access to mp3 recordings by Adam of all 508 tunes, each played once at a moderate tempo, with rhythm on one channel and lead on the other.
Also included in Granger??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar are instructions for reading Easytab, descriptions of tune types presented in the book, and primers on traditional flatpicking and rhythm guitar. Additionally, there are sections on timing, ornamentation, technique, and fingering, as well as information on tune sources and a history of the collection.
Mel Bay also offers The Granger Collection, by Bill Nicholson, the same 508 tunes in standard music notation.

Performance NotesA long, long time ago, dragons roamed the countryside and tormented the towns. Our hero has always dreamed about not killing a dragon but riding one. When the hero finds the dragon, it terrifyingly shrieks out warnings. Eventually, the dragon lays down and allows our hero to climb on. Then, we hear as the dragon magically flies with our hero on board. The dragon's shriek themes are still present, but are beautiful now, instead of scary. Having ridden the beautiful creature, our hero triumphantly returns to the village.Conductor NotesThis piece has many tricky accidentals in both keys. When the key changes are on a line break in a part, courtesy accidentals have been added. The conductor may want to explain that courtesy accidentals mean take note of the key signature. The dragon shriek solos (mm. 39–47) should be performed as raucously and loudly as possible. A superball mallet is a rubber bouncy ball on a stick; these can be purchased online. The mallet is rubbed on the instrument to create vibrations. You might also experiment using a superball mallet on the inside of a grand piano plate to be played simultaneously. Feel free to lengthen these measures (41 and 46) and get creative to make your dragon sounds last longer and be as loud and scary as possible. Perhaps these instruments could be staged in front of the band. Search YouTube for Superball mallet drum head or Superball mallet piano, or even How to build your own superball mallets..
