Topic: Mance Lipscomb - Texas Blues Guitar Solos by Dan Bowden (out of print)

[Blues Vintage]

I'm looking for this book. Does anyone have a PDF maybe? It is long out of print.
Second hand copies, if you can even find one, are outrageously priced.

BV – are you on The Real Blues Forum on Facebook – someone there might have it and they also have a large document repository.

No, I don't even have Facebook.

I may have found the book in a library (1 copy in the entire nation, only it's like 90 miles away), hope I can get my hands on it.
In the meanwhile your "Mance Lipscomb Guitar Keys and Positions" in Weeniepedia is a big help, Chris.

This may be old news, but your local library may have inter-library loan availability.

Thanks! And I don't know that I can recommend joining Facebook just for that! Hopefully interlibrary loan can help, though.

I own this book.  I will try to scan it for you after the holidays.  Cheers, Mike

Thanks for the offer, Mike. But I already acquired the book. I should've mentioned that here.

The book is great. Tab is accurate and nice photos. The lyrics are written out too and do contain flaws but we have weeniepedia.

I recommend the book to the Lipscomb aficionado.
The songs (all 15) in it are taken from the Arhoolie compilation "Texas Blues Guitar"
