BruceO, a GUEST who posted to the thread on "Soldier's Joy", gave the URL of his website and it's absolutely PACKED with good stuff! Lots of old tunes, some theory, and links to MORE old tunes.

Roots of Folk: Old English, Scots, and Irish Songs and Tunes

The one thing *I* jumped at was his "Chord Transposition Slide Rule for 12 Tone Equal Temperament Scale". I was just trying to come up with something similar last night and here he's got the whole thing all put together for me.

Check it out!

Bruce, become a member and hang around! (Assuming you're not already *G*)

Question for Bruce or anyone else who knows a little theory: On your little chord slide rule, a major chord would be 1, 3, 5 and a minor would be 1, 3b, 5. Is that correct? (I know how to make them on the guitar; I just don't know what actual NOTES I'm playing.)
