This was a little tabulature booklet that David put out in the 1970s around the time he started the "Mandolin World News" publications. I expect I am not the only one here who is old enough to remember those days when it was hard to get mandolin tabs or just general information. Anyway, does anyone here happen to have a copy of the subject booklet? Some years ago my copy went missing. I am now struggling to remember the B part of "Durham's Reel" (or Durham's Bull"). The version in David's booklet is very appealing and I like it much better than other versions from Mandozine or elsewhere. Something about the descending scale patterns is very appealing. I used to play it but now cannot remember how the last half of the B part goes. Old age brain fade.

So, if anyone here on the Cafe just happens to have a copy, I would really appreciate it if you would scan the page containing Durham's Reel (or Bull, whichever is) and post it. I am only asking for the one tune, not the whole booklet. Thanks in advance.

Yes, great stuff and invaluable to those of us who aren’t good at learning tunes and breaks by ear.
