    I admit it, I'm a book junkie. I've been listening to a lot of Jethro lately and came across his book on Elderly's site. Seems to have a lot of BG stuff in it. Any thoughts on its suitability for a jazz wannabe?

    Me too! Ya know, I keep buying books and adding them to the stack, but I don't seem to get any better for it. Go figure.

    This book and CD is essential to anyone who wants to play in the style of Jethro Burns.

    My mandolin teacher lent me the book, it's great, he does a lot of blugrass standards in the book, but with his own twist. I have the book and cd on order so I can return this one. The exercises are really good, too. I give it a thumbs up.
