Book Reviews of Original Banjo Case Chord Book
Book Review: important for old time banjoists and improvisors
Summary: 5 Stars
A lot of banjoists won't think they need this chord book. Chords and old time banjo playing especially are not recognized as friends. If you play old time, then you get a lot of non sense from guitar players or even people trained to play tenor or classic banjo about chords.
However, I find this chord book pretty useful for trying to build backup patterns, even if they are done not by strumming chords, but by playing rolls and frailing patterns where I am not actually making the whole chord but playing the notes of the chord.
I played guitar for about 35 years before I played banjo. I developed a repertoire of songs based on chords. Having this chord book helped me to learn some of the chords that might seem normal in a guitar players repertoire that seem distant for old timey banjo players. For example, I did an arrangement of my friend Raeford Starke's song "Roughed" up that has a BM7.
I could not have figured it out without this book.
You will also find that a practice especially jazz players do with a chord book can be useful by trying to play arpeggios of the notes of a chord. This can get you a lot of notes and how they go together. It can give you a good bunch of ways to harmonice or play leads around tunes.
Just because you play old time banjo, does not mean that you should be ignorant of music!
