FANNY-PAK (Standards, 50s-70s, Ethnic)

(In preparation; contents not complete)


ca. 400 tunes, 400 pages. Essentially the chords only version of Gig Book, plus ca. 100 editional tunes. A Guide to changes (no notes, just chords) for Standards from the late 40s-60s. Separate sections of Latins, Waltzes, Irish, Italian, Jewish, Christmas, Wedding tunes. A companion and supplement to Codpiece Chords.  Many "standards" were actually written in the 30s and 40s, so if you play standards gigs, you need Codpiece Chords. Included is a combined index to both books, and a few special categories lists. A good start has been made on this book
The waltzes, Latins, and polkas in Codpiece Chords will be replaced by a section of 30s-40s tunes when Fanny Pak is published.
