With ideas on how to add your own touches, it is easy to make the dish - or the tune - your own.The Clawhammer Cookbook takes the second of these paths. Michael Bremer doesn't tell the reader how to play the songs, he teaches ways to approach, arrange and personalise any tune - helping them to develop their own unique style.The Clawhammer Cookbook features old-time music, as well as pieces in a few other musical styles.
