(Lead Sheets: Melody line, lyrics and chord symbols). This collection features over 100 all-time folk favorites in the spirit of the school it is named for. The Old Town School of Folk Music opened its doors in December 1957 to teach "good folk music," and its students learn such tunes as: Bill Bailey * Buffalo Gals * City of New Orleans * Cripple Creek * Erie Canal * House of the Rising Sun * Just a Closer Walk with Thee * Oh Susanah * Old Time Religion * Shine on Harvest Moon * Wildwood Flower * and more. Also includes a nice introduction, photos of past students, and provides how-tos on reading tablature, tuning a guitar, fingerpicking, and more.
