The Mountain Dulcimer Plays Classic Country, Vol. 1 John Sackenheim Artist Statement After publishing two artist specific tab books, I wanted to do a general country music book. This book contains 16 country songs written and/or recorded during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. It includes tab for the mountain dulcimer as well as the music notation (melody notes only) and back-up chords. Back Street Affair, Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain, (Now and Then There’s) A Fool Such As I, Georgia on My Mind, The Great Speckled Bird, He’ll Have to Go, Have I Told You Lately that I Love You, Have You Ever Been Lonely (Have You Ever Been Blue), I Can’t Stop Loving You, I Don’t Care, The Long Black Veil, My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You, (There’ll Be) Peace In The Valley (For Me), Pick Me Up on Your Way Down, Since I Met You Baby, Walking the Floor Over You [Editor's note: All of the sheet music in John's new book is copyrighted so he was unable to provide a sample for DPN. The
sheet music on the opposie page, Just a Closer Walk, is from his book, The Mountain Dulcimer Plays Patsy Cline. Not long
before we went to press, John released another new book: The
Mountain Dulcimer Plays Johnny Cash. It is also available through www.johnsackenheim.com]
