Keola Beamer Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar - Five Easy Pieces Y N
5 Easy Pieces OUT-OF-PRINT?

Format: Sheet Music, 7pp.
Publisher: Starscape Music
Pub. Date: 1995
Edition Desc: SHEET MUSIC

As the title denotes, Keola Beamer has arrange 5 easy slack key songs.  Each song is short and sweet.  That is, each song is only a page or two of music including both tablature and standard musical notation.  The only downside here is that there is no recording to go along with the printed materials.   Nevertheless, Keola has chosen some great songs to introduce guitar players to the art of slack key.

Update: I am not sure if this title, which I bought from Keola's website (www.kbeamer.com), is available anymore.  Perhap's some of these songs are covered in his online course?
