AC/DC, FAMILY JEWELS. TABLATURE

324 pages. Compiled to coincide with the 2005 AC/DC DVD, this bumper book of transcriptions features 40 of the greatest slices of hard rock magic from the Australian legends, all in accurate Guitar Tab.

Since their first show at the Chequers Club in Sydney, AC/DC have become true rock heroes, and a clear example of everything that hard rock music is about. From the opening notes of their first single Can I Sit Next To You, they spear-headed a career of outrageous shows and thundering songs. In March 2003 AC/DC were inducted into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall Of Fame, confirming their status as one of the loudest and most exciting bands in the world.

This heavy songbook is as metal as it gets! 40 songs, including the unstoppable Whole Lotta Rosie and For Those About To Rock (We Salute You), have been transcribed in Guitar Tab so you can get your hands and ears around the insane talents of the inimitable Angus Young.

(LETTER TO SIR ROBERT CECIL)

This book is filled with John Dowland's haunting lute songs, as performed by Sting and Edin Karamazov. After his introduction to Dowland's music in the 1980s, Sting has continually returned to the music of this 'original English singer-songwriter' for inspiration, culminating in this spectacular album. Also included in the album and the songbook are excerpts from John Dowland's letters, bringing us even closer to the man behind the masterpieces.

MUSIC BY JOHN DOWLAND PERFORMED BY STING AND EDIN KARAMAZOV

BOOK TO ACCOMPANY STING'S LATEST ALBUM OF LUTE SONGS BY RENAISSANCE COMPOSER JOHN DOWLAND.
ARRANGED FOR GUITAR AND VOICE IN BOTH STANDARD NOTATION AND TABLATURE.

NOTE ON THE GUITAR ARRANGEMENTS.

This songbook aims to present the lute music of Songs From The Labyrinth as faithfully as possible in a version playable on acoustic guitar.

The renaissance lutes used on the recording have bass strings which give them a considerably
larger range than a guitar in standard tuning, and in adapting the music for guitar it has
occasionally been necessary to omit some bass notes or to raise notes by an octave.

Capos and alternate tunings have been used to evoke the resonance of the lute when playing in keys that would otherwise lack resonance and playability on the guitar. Where capos are used in the vocal pieces, or where the whole guitar is to be de-tuned, the standard notation shows the sounding pitch of the Sting recording and therefore matches the key of the vocal parts. However in the instrumental pieces the use of capos or de-tuning has been left optional, with the standard notation written as if no capo or de-tuning is being used.

Originally, lute music was most commonly written in a form of tablature rather than in standard notation, and-just as in modem guitar tablature-the system has limitations in the level of rhythmic detail that it is possible to show. For example, if a melody in semiquavers is played together with a bass note for each four melody notes, lute tablature will commonly only show that the following passage is to be played in emiquavers, with the bass notes shown in the appropriate vertical alignment; the decision as to whether each bass note should ring for a full crotchet or be cut shorter is left to the performer. (Note also that it is standard practice to double the note durations when converting to modem notation, so that modem semiquavers will actually be demi-semiquavers in the original, as in the example below.) The standard notation in this collection should therefore not be seen to represent the original or definitive version of the music and, although it does have the advantage of making the overlapping voices within the guitar part easily distinguishable, the performer is not necessarily obliged to hold all notes for their written durations.

Although the majority of the pieces on Songs From The Labyrinth keep closely to the original versions, some tracks have been creatively arranged, incorporating the performers' original adaptations as well as more standard variations and ornamentation. It should be remembered that the scores in this book are adapted transcriptions of the recorded performances, rather than editions of the original scores, and for in-depth study of this music it may be useful to consult an edition based directly on the original scores, and showing the original notation.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE
It Would be impossible to approach writing a book on the Romero guitar technique without first giving the reverence due my grandfather Celedonio Romero, the creator of the “Romero Technique." The Romero family has given the lovers of the classical guitar a technique and a special approach to this instrument that is so remarkable. Growing up in the Romero family, I was fortunate to have not just one, but four master teachers: my grandfather Celedonio, my father Celin, and my uncles Pepe and Angel. If you can imagine a small boy reaching out to touch, handle, and embrace this instrument of exquisite beauty, then you can get an inkling of my world as a child and teenager. From that to becoming an actual practicing member of the family has been my entire life. Given this magnificent gift of membership, I decided I would like to write a book that would share with other lovers of the guitar the unique "Romero Technique." This would consist of simple melodies, perfect finger placements, and the remarkable use of integrating melody and nuance while creating passion, personality, and character in the art of playing the guitar. All of these parts collectively form the embodiment of the Romero Technique. These parts reflect the training and technique of my grandfather and my own adaptations of these remarkable fundamentals. The exercises, rudies, and repertoire included in this book are the fitst steps mat my grandfather taught his sons, which were then passed on to my cousin Lito and me.
My hope is to give you the reader, you the guitatist, you the aficionado of the guitar all that my grandfather taught my family and me-the incredible art of the guitar. When we play an instrument, we must be very systematic in building our technique, since it will be one of the most vital tools for expressing our emotions through our instrument and its beautiful music. Without a solid technique, we will continuously struggle with our hands, fingers, maybe even with our entire body and our own mind. We should abandon the illusion that one can reach joy and satisfaction in the art of music making without having the proper working toolsour hands and fingers. Finding the correct technique will be an exciting process that will require your patience, sensitivity, and love. During this development, you have to enjoy playing a single note flavored with as much love as if playing a complete concerto. If you take pleasure and pride in playing a single beautiful note or chord, it will not be long before you play two beautiful notes, and then an entire composition. Playing the guitar might seem like entering a great labyrinth with so many possible paths and detailed instructions, but if you follow the instructions step-by-step, you will reach the desired goal.
