LESSON ONE: Dave Laibman's arrangement of Colored Aristocracy features a Chet Atkins approach.  Midnight on the Water a beautiful Texas waltz, was arranged by Duck Baker and features counterpoint lines and variations on the theme. The West Wind is an evocative Irish air played with a classical feel.

LESSON TWO: American fiddle tunes Boys, My Money's All Gone played in a Nashville style and Last of Callahan an arrangement using a counterpoint bass line played against the melody.
