INTRODUCTION

Tommy's compositions and aITangements cover many styles and techniques. If you have studied the Mel Bay books for Tommy's CD's Only and Endless Road, you already have a head start in learning his mu ic. The tunes for this project are heard on the CD The Mystery. Also you can study the Mel Bay project, Emmanuel Labor with Tommy's discussions of pieces from the above three CD's. From The Mystery Tommy play and discusses "The Mystery", "Gameshow Rag/Cannonball Rag", "The Diggers' Waltz", "Lewis and Clark", and "Antonella's Birthday". There will be some slight variations between the video performance and the recorded tunes. Although he may not playa tune in performance exactly the same way each lime, these transcription will allow you to learn the recorded version, and will give you insight into his methods. These tunes range in difficulty from intermediate to very difficult. There are a few difficult stretches and also Tommy's technique involves some innovative moves, such as fretting the 5th string with the thumb. But whether or not ou perform these tunes, most of the enjoyment comes from understanding them and playing them for their beaut). Some tunes are played with a thumbpick, and others are played without a pick, resulting in a softer sound. Others are played in a hybrid style, using a flat pick, allowing for strong rhythm and interwoven melody note With this style, the right-hand index finger is no longer available for melody. The melody is produced by the pick and the middle and ring fingers. This technique may be difficult for you if you are based in traditional fingerpicking, but it is well worth the effort to learn it. If you read musical notation, the tablature will still be helpful as it points toward left-hand position on the guitar neck. And if you are relying on tablature, remember that left-hand fingering is found in the notation. Learning the hybrid style requires understanding the information given in the tablature. I have tried to indicate the pick stroke directions that are most important, while trying to avoid repeating the stroke directions to reduce the amount of clutter in the tablature. In the hybrid tyle, the thumb and first finger hold the pick, and in accord with classical notation this is shown by a "p". The middle finger will be "m" and the ring finger will be "a". These letters will be stacked when the middle and/or the ring finger pluck notes at the same time as the pick. At other times the pick (thumb and first finger unit) and ... 

TOMMY EMMANUEL C.G.P.

Two-time Grammy nominee Tommy Emmanuel has a professional career that spans over four decades and continues to intersect with some of the finest musicians throughout the world. A household name in his native Australia, Tommy has garnered hundreds of thousands of loyal fans worldwide. Tommy's unique style - he calls it simply "finger style" – is akin to playing guitar the way a pianist plays piano, using all ten fingers. Guitar legend Chet Atkins was one of the first to inspire Emmanuel to pick up the guitar as a child. Decades later Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel's biggest fans. In 1999, Chet honored Tommy Emmanuel with the title of "Certified Guitar Player" for his lifetime contribution to the instrument, a rare honor shared by only three other people in the world (Jerry Reed, Steve Wariner and John Knowles). Atkins eventually recorded with Tommy in 1996 on 'The Day the Finger Pickers Took Over the World", for which Emmanuel received his first Grammy award nomination. This was also Atkins last recording.

After a recent recuperative rest, resulting from an exhausting touring schedule, Tommy is now completely rejuvenated and embarking on a full tour schedule in 2008. A new double live CD and DVD, "Center Stage" filmed in High Definition and recorded at the Sierra Nevada Brewery in Chico, California will be commercially released in Spring '08. The DVD portion will also air on Public Television affiliates all over the United States. Every element of modern technology was used in the production of both the DVD and CD. Tomm's record producer, Kim Person, recorded and mixed the audio tracks, while long-time Sierra Nevada video producer/ director Peter Barlow tied the entire package together in state-of-the-art quality. It makes for a stunning package, both aurally and visually. The double disc Live CD "Center Stage" contains many fan show-stoppers, including Emmanuel's BeatIes Medley, Mombasa, and Initiation - the aboriginal tribute song that has evolved over the years and never sounds the same on any recording - or during any show. Tommy also introduces four never-before recorded tracks, "Ruby's Eyes", "Lenny Bro''', "The Jolly Swagman" and "Papa George" (inspired by George Harrison). Also, included are several arrangements of popular traditional tunes like "House of the Rising", "Nine Pound Hammer", "Amazing Grace" - and for his Japanese fans, "Sukiyaki" This new CD is a great mix of the rare, the new, the traditional and the favorites. Emmanuel's music and life are legendary in Australia. He began playing guitar at age 4, by learning to play by ear without any formal instruction. Emmanuel and his older brother Phil were child prodigies, starting their professional career in the 1960s. By the age of six, Tommy was already working as a professional musician. Shortly after his father's death in 1966, the Emmanuel family was approached by Australian country music star Buddy Williams, who took the family on the road until they were forced by the Australian child welfare department to stop traveling. The Emmanuel children were then sent to a regular school. During these years, Tommy was playing in "The Trailblazers" (with siblings Chris on drums and Virginia on slide guitar) on weekends. He also taught guitar and made numerous television appearances in musical competitions. Emmanuel's first brush with fame came when The Trailblazers won two televised talent contests and produced an EP. He and his siblings worked hard ... 

ANTONELLA'S BIRTHDAY
Antonella is one of my dearest friends from Soave, Italy and I wrote it early one morning as the golden sun
streamed through the windows onto my bed. Antonella was making breakfast downstairs and when I found out
it was her birthday, I dedicated it to her, with all my heart. She's a true friend.

Tune the 5th string down to G and the 6th string down to D. The tune is played with a flat pick in a hybrid
style, using the pick ("p") and the middle finger ("m"), and the ring finger ("a"). These letters will be stacked
over the corresponding strings in the tablature. Natural harmonics are used extensively. With your left-hand
finger lightly touch the string at the fret indicated in brackets, <7> for example. In the notation the notehead
will be diamond shaped. Then strike the string with the pick to obtain the harmonic or chiming sound.
Remember that the harmonics should always ring freely, creating a "cascade" effect. In order to notate the tune
correctly, the first note of the song is played as the last half of the last beat of the first measure. That is necessary in order to be in the right place when you play the last note of measure 9. That harmonic on the 5th string
could be considered the first real note of the melody, but it continues into the next measure with an eighth note
rest. There is another way to think of it. If you are tapping your foot, you start just after the first note of the
tune, and by the beginning of measure 10 you will be tapping on the the tied note, and the melody will fall in
place "in time" throughout the rest of the tune. As usual with this style, pay attention to the pick strokes, 
for downstroke and "V" for upstroke. Sometimes, as in measure 11, a downstroke can play many strings in a
strum motion. In measure 21, the right-hand finger letters are stacked over the notation in the first beat. meaning
that the pick plays the third string, the middle finger plucks the second string, and the ring finger pluck
the first string. For the last beat of that measure it is understood that the pick plays the slide on the fifth string.
and it is written that the middle and ring fingers play the other two strings. On the lowest string of a chord.
there is not always room to show the downstroke symbol. (And that is the case throughout the book.)

Every day we experience "The Mystery." It's in our love for each other, it's in our feelings ofr others, in our music, it's in the kindness of strangers, in the parade of people who seem to appear at the right moment to help or to encourage us through tough times, in the wonders we see around us when we travel or just the feeling we are doing something good for our brothers and sisters. It's all around us, in us, ahead of us and lighting our way. It's God's awesome love for his children. Get it? Got it? Good!

Crossroads
Cream,1968
» No. 3 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Eric Clapton once described Cream's music as "blues ancient and modern." This track is what he meant. He was not yet 23 when he played this high-velocity version of the Robert Johnson song at San Francisco's Winterland on March 10th, 1968. Everything in Clapton's solos is grounded in the blues vocabulary but pointed to the future. "When Clapton soloed, he wrote wonderful symphonies from classic blues licks in that fantastic tone," Little Steven Van Zandt told Rolling Stone in 2004. "You could sing his solos like songs in themselves."

Brown Sugar
The Rolling Stones, 1971
» No. 5 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
“Satisfaction" may be the Rolling Stones' most recognizable riff, but this Sticky Fingers hit – based on a gutbucket guitar part devised by Mick Jagger – is the band's raunchy guitar pinnacle. Keith Richards' secret weapon: He's playing a guitar that's missing its lowest string.
Appears on: Sticky Fingers (Virgin)

Eruption
Van Halen, 1978
» No. 6 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Eddie Van Halen's 102-second mission statement was a piece he invented onstage: a solo showcase for his mastery of tone and technique, notably the rush of notes he produced with his fretboard tapping. An army of teens would try to duplicate it, emerging years later in every metal band of the Eighties.

Stairway to Heaven
Led Zeppelin, 1971
» No. 8 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
"Stairway," Jimmy Page told RS in 1975, "crystallized the essence of the band." It's a masterpiece of dramatic ascension: Page's acoustic picking rising into chiming chords, which introduce the solo, a brilliant succession of phrases that steadily move toward rock& roll ecstasy.

Statesboro Blues
The Allman Brothers Band, 1971
» No.9 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
In 1968, Gregg Allman went to visit his older brother, Duane, on his 22nd birthday. Duane was sick in bed, so Gregg brought along a bottle of Coricidin pills for his fever and the debut album by guitarist Taj Mahal as a gift. "About two hours after I left, my phone rang," Gregg remembers. " 'Baby brother, baby brother, get over here now!' " When Gregg got there, Duane had poured the pills out of the bottle, washed off the label and was using it as a slide to play "Statesboro Blues," the old Blind Willie McTellsong that Taj Mahal covered. Duane had never played slide before, says Gregg, but "he just picked it up and started bumin'. He was a natural." The song quickly became a part of the Allman Brothers Band's repertoire, and Duane's slide guitar became crucial to their sound. "Statesboro Blues" was the opening track on their legendary 1971 live double album, At Fillmore East, and ever since, the moaning and squealing opening licks have given fans chills at live shows. "It wasn't something that Duane would play the same way every night," says current Allmans guitarist Warren Haynes, one of many guitarists who have filled Duane's shoes since he died in late 1971. "But in all of our heads, that's the way it goes." There's one thing the current band doesn't try to replicate from the Fillmore East performance: At the end of Duane's sublime "Statesboro" solo, the guitarist hits an off-key note that Gregg calls the "note from hell." "He left it in because he knew I hated it," says Gregg, claiming that the mistake only adds to the song's legend. "It was live. It was something that happened."

Whole Lotta Love
Led Zeppelin, 1969
» No. 11 from Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
This thundering rewrite of Muddy Waters' "You Need Love" showcased three of Jimmy Page's specialties: primal, monomaniacal riffs; innovative production; and solos with the savage mastery he'd developed as a top-flight session musician in the pre-Zeppel years.
Appears on: Led Zeppelin II /(Atlantic)

Layla
Derek and the Dominos, 1970
» No. 13 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs ofAll Time
"I didn't do it - it was Duane," Eric Clapton said, laughing, in 1988. Guest guitarist Duane Allman
created one of rock's most exciting and memorable licks, pinching the vocal line from Albert King's "As the Years Go Passing By"and speeding it up. App~ars on: Layla and Oth~r Assorted Love Songs (Polydor)

My Generation
The Who, 1965
» No. 15 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs ofAll Time
Before smashing guitars was a cliche, it was a shock, and The Who's signature song was one shock after another, from Pete Townshend's pile-driving two-chord riff to his sudden disappearance while bassist John Entwistle solos to the glitchy feedback that ends the original recording.

Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath, 1970
» No. 17 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs ofAll Time
Tony Iommi invented heavy-metal guitar out of necessity: He'd lost two fingertips on his fretting hand, and he used thimbles and dropped tunings to make playing easier. His crawling, dissonant riff (also called "the devil's chord") became the basis of thousands of metal songs.
Appears on: Black Sabbath (Warner Bros.)

Blitzlaieg Bop
Ramones, 1976
» No. 18 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs ofAll Time
There's no guitar solo, because guitarist Johnny Ramone hated solos. But his down-stroke barre chords were fat with Dick Dale's twang and Bo Diddley's strumming. Joey Ramone once said that in Johnny's guitar, he heard organ, piano and other instruments that weren't really there.

People Get Ready
The Impressions, 1965
» No. 20 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Curtis Mayfield's deepest civil rights anthem is powered by his eloquent open-tuned guitar-playing: The backbeat echoed the new sounds coming out of Jamaica, and the subtle, fluid solo spirals are as expressive as his singing. Bob Marley later synthesized it with "One Love."
Appears on: Ultimate Collection (Hip-O)
(Music appears on page )

Can't You Hear Me Knocking
The Rolling Stones, 1971
» No. 25 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs ofAll Time
The fist-on-your-door riff was classic Keith Richards, while the solo showed Mick Taylor's disciplined touch. "Mick was so lyrical on songs like 'Knocking,' " Charlie Watts has said, noting his love of the song's long instrumental coda. "That was a complete jam, one take at the end."
Appears on: Sticky Fingers (Virgin)

Back in Black
AC/DC, 1980
» No. 29 from Rolling Stone" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Angus and Malcolm Young's dual-guitar masterpiece is the platonic ideal of hard rock. The bridge alone is heavier than most axmen ever manage, and the riff is instantly recognizable: "Black"has been covered by everyone from Living Colour to Shakira, and sampled by the Beastie Boys and Eminem.
Appears on: Back in Black (Epic)

Sweet Child 0' Mine
Guns n' Roses, 1987
»No. 63 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Slash was sitting on the floor in Guns n' Roses' squalid East Hollywood house sometime in 1986 when he started fooling around with a chiming, circular melody. "It was an interesting sort of pattern," Slash says. "But Jesus Christ, I never thought it was going to become a song." As he kept playing, fellow G n' R guitarist Izzy Stradlin joined in, playing a simple chord progression. They didn't realize that Ax}Rose was listening in from upstairs - and writing lyrics. At rehearsal the next day, the band hashed out what would become "Sweet Child" - over the objections of Slash, who was convinced that the music was too lightweight for what he saw as a "thrash band," But he relented, and soon came up with the lyrical, multisectioned solo that ended up on the finished song. "It's a combination of influences," Slash says. "From Jeff Beck, Cream and Zeppelin to stuff you'd be surprised at: the solos in Manfred Mann's version of 'Blinded by the Light' and Gerry Rafferty's 'Baker Street.''' Despite the solo's complexity, it was the song's precise intro that proved challenging onstage. "It's easy now, but it was very daunting in the early days," Slash says. "Especially because I drank exorbitant amounts of alcohol and had other chemical things going on. I hated playing that song for years."

Adam Raised a Cain
Bruce Springsteen, 1978
»No. 67 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Before he was known as a songwriter, Springsteen was the fastest guitar player in Asbury Park. And in this bluesy hard-rock blast, he lets those chops loose again, pushing the E Street Band to garage-land with the angriest lead guitar on record.
Appears on: Darkness on the Edge of Town (Columbia)
(Music appears on page 10)

Money
Pink Floyd, 1973
»No. 69 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
David Gilmour hangs back for the first three minutes of this definitive Floyd rocker, which started as an acoustic blues song in rehearsals. Then the song shifts from a 7/4 stomp into straight time, and he delivers a rampaging freakout, ending up on notes so high most guitars don't even reach them.
Appears on: Dark Side of the Moon (Capitol)
(Music appears on page)

Summertime Blues
Blue Cheer, 1968
» No. 73 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
This power trio's cover of Eddie Cochran's classic was their only hit, sometimes called the first heavy-metal record. It's a showcase for the massive roar of Leigh Stephens' guitar, so fuzzed-up it scrapes like steel wool, dragging the rockabilly riff through the dust.
Appears on: Vincebus Eruptum (Island/Mercury)

Beat It
Michael Jackson, 1982
» No. 81 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
There had never been a soul hit with as much heavy guitar as this or a heavy-metal hit with as much soul. Paul Jackson Jr. and Steve Lukather play the menacing riff, but Eddie Van Halen's speed-shred solo is the coup de grace. Van Halen says producer Quincy Jones' only advice was "go be yourself."
Appears on: Thriller (Epic)

How Soon Is Now?
The Smiths, 1985
» No. 90 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Trm<
Trading guitarist Johnny Marr's spidery technique for a sobbing oscillation on a few extended chords and a tone-bending wail that sounds like the world racingby, this song became a club standard, opening the passageways between underground rock and dance music.
Appears on: Meat Is Murder (Sire) (Music appears on page )

Memo From Turner
Mick Jagger, 1970
» No. 92 from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of AllTrmtt
Guitar virtuoso Ry Cooder, who played on the Stones' Let It Bleed, accused Keith Richards of stealing his open-G tuning technique on singles like "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and "Gimme Shelter." Cooder's jittery slide guitar defines Jagger's first solo recording, which was written for his film role as a decadent rock star in 1970's Performance.

WhiteRoom
Cream, 1968
» No. 55from Rolling Stone"' Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
The first rock supergroup, Cream gave Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker as much playas Eric Clapton, but Clapton's unrelenting wah-wah cascade signs his name in foot-high letters over the song. Along with Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)," it made that pedal the sound of '68 psychedelia. Appears on: Wheels of Fire (Polydor) (Music appears on page 246)

Eight Miles High
The Byrds, 1966
» No. 56from Rolling Stone"' Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Roger McGuinn's chiming 12-string solos helped to mold Sixties rock. But what he was inspired by here wasn't rock at all: Indian classical music and saxophonist John Coltrane's explorations of single
chords and phrases. McGuinn said his guitar "breathes like a wind instrument."
Appears on: The Byrds Greatest Hits (Columbia/Legacy)

Dark Star
Grateful Dead, 1969
» No. 57from Rolling Stone"' Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
Considered the Dead's greatest live track, this definitive near-half-hour version from an acid-soaked Fillmore West show is Jerry Garcia at his spaciest and most exploratory. Framed by Bob Weir and Phil Lesh, Garcia's free-form improvisation is the song's "nightfall of diamonds" come to life. Appears on: Live/Dead (Rhino) (Music appears on page 76)

Rumble
Link Wray, 1958
» No. 58from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
In 1958, guitar distortion and power chords were virtually unheard of, but Wray stabbed a pencil through his amplifier to make it sound nastier, dragged his pick like a switchblade, and got this blues riff banned by radio stations as an incitement to violence. Not bad for
an instrumental. Appears on: Rumble! The Best of Link Wray (Rhino)

Freeway Jam
Jeff Beck, 1975
» No. 59from Rolling Stone'" Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
After years of leading bands with vocalists, Beck proved he is his own best singer. There's a howling quality to his string-bending in this brisk funk. "There were thousands of guitarists playing with their Les Pauls cranked up bloody blaring loud," he later told RS. "I needed to try something new." Appears on: Blow by Blow (Epic) (Music appears on page 90)

Soul Man
Sam and Dave, 1967
» No. 61from Rolling Stone"' Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
"Play it, Steve!" shouts Sam Moore - he's calling out to Steve Cropper, the genius who powered Stax Records' house band. Cropper's fluttering, high-end riffs provide the song's rhythmic mojo, and his squealing fills (for which he used a cigarette lighter in lieu of an actual slide) are its third singing voice.

On the making of the CD...
I have always been fascinated by the recording process and have always tried to have something around to record and experiment with. Everything from just a two-track recorder to an eight-track, even an eight-track cassette recorder. So I was thrilled when programs like Pro Tools came along. There are now many terrific digital computer-based recording software applications out there. Pro Tools just happened to be my choice. I needed a sort of "trial" song to use as a learning tool for Pro Tools, so I worked up the arrangement for "Softly and Tenderly." That was not the first thing I recorded on Pro Tools, but it was the first actual project. It was a blast. I decided early on that I wanted to treat Pro Tools as if it were a tape recorder, even though it does some amazingly sophisticated things (which I do use from time to time). But what I mean by that is that I try to do "takes," as if recording to tape. In other words, I try to record through the entire song if possible, depending on the arrangement. Or, at the very least, I try to record, say, a verse completely through. With Pro Tools it's so tempting to just record a good verse and a good chorus and then copy and paste. But for me, many things are lost when you do that-one being spontaneity, of course, but dynamics as well, among other things. That's how all the pieces were done on the CD. Any solo guitar piece was recorded from start to finish-no fixes. The more complex arrangements were recorded just as I would have done in a studio with tape, which would have been sections at a time. For me that kept the creative flow going throughout the entire song instead of just in bits. Even though the verses of anyone song might have the same chord patterns, there are subtle differences that, I think, please the ear. At least, they do forme. At the time I recorded this CD, I was living in a very noisy apartment in Hollywood. As you can imagine, that made recording on mic virtually impossible. As luck would have it, I had been sent a prototype acoustic guitar preamp by a company called PreS onus. It would later become their AcoustiQ acoustic guitar preamp. It was a tube preamp and sounded fabulous, though sometimes a little noisy. (I'm not sure the production version of that preamp sounded as good as the prototype. Sadly, the one I had finally died.) That preamp was the primary piece of gear used to record almost all of the acoustic guitars on Hymns for Guitar. And the primary guitar was my older (1993) Taylor 420. I fell in love with the sound of the guitar from the very beginning. I still have it and have had some work done on it, which has made it sound and play even more heavenly. I also used a Baby Taylor, which has been strung in Nashville tuning, which, by way of explanation, is basically the higher octave strings of a 12-string set for the bottom four strings and normal strings for the top two. The Baby Taylor sounds so sweet tuned that way that I leave it like that now. I also used a very special guitar to me. It's a 1964 Oscar Teller nylon-string. The age isn't necessarily what makes this guitar so special. Peter Gabriel and Bob Ezrin gave it to me at the end of the sessions for Peter's first solo Lp, which included "Solsbury Hill." Robert Fripp played that guitar on the song "Humdrum" on that record. And I subsequently played it on two of Alice Cooper's biggest hit records, "I Never Cry" and "You and Me." I've owned that guitar since about 1977 and it's now like an old friend. All those years of the wood drying has caused some problems, but it has also made it sound rich and sweet. I think I do things a little differently when it comes to arranging and creating parts for overdub. There are two basic things I do; one involves actually working out a particular part and the other is basically improvising part. I have developed those two methods over the years through the sessions and live work I've done with other artists. Both methods work for me and I use both all the time. When it comes to improvising a part, I may just change tunings and play along with the track to see what develops. If something starts to happen, I'll simply hit record. Other times I like to work out specific parts need to happen a certain way to emphasize a rhythm or lay a nice foundation. "Shall We Gather at the River" is a good example of a constructed part. The arpeggio that form the basic foundation for the song were worked out specifically to do what they do. As far as song selection, I wanted to do some of my favorites as well as any that might inspire an arrangement. I was looking for beautiful melodies and I prefer the older hymns-the older the better. And very obscure composers, which, again, I preferred, wrote many of them. "The Old Rugged Cross" was my father's favorite hymn. Bob Ezrin suggested "Angel Band" and "Will My Mother Know Me There," both of which I hadn't heard before but loved the moment I heard them ...
