Hi Luna,

A great place to start is here.

Stephan Grossman has put out a series of "Masters of Blues Guitar" that come with tab and CDs or cassettes. I have the ones for Rev. Gary Davis, Mississippi John Hurt, Blind Boy Fuller, Blind Blake and Lonnie Johnson.

Also Woody Mann put out a book a few years ago called The Complete Robert Johnson or something like that. He has tab for everything RJ recorded, tho' it's more in passages than entire arrangements.

I'm also finding a book called "Fretboard Roadmaps" very useful. I'm not at home and I can't remember the author's name, but he's put out book/CD sets for blues, bluegrass and (I think) several other styles.

Anyway, check out Elderly (or your friendly local store). There are lots of good books out there.

cheers,

david

Hi again, Luna ——

after reading your post again, it occurred to me you might be looking for sites where there is guitar tab that could be printed out and used. Sorry, don't know any of those, but if your looking for the Stefan Grossman (excuse previous misspelling, please), click here.

cheers,

david

Robin, I clicked it and it worked just fine. However, there is a pop up ad there that is blank. Try closing in or go here then click on the Tab link on the left.

You might wanna have a look at this European site. 'Tis the motherload of what you seek. You will need a (free) evaluation version of Guitar Pro to view the tabs.

Thanks for all of the replies. I had been to that European site but I couldn't view the tabs......I didn't know I needed Guitar Pro. It has some nice tabs on some of my favorites. Thanks again!

Anyone knows where I can find a tab of Memphis Minnie's "Me And My Chaffeur"? Thank you!
