Thanks for that, Jodi.

I’ve just checked out your website and noticed you’ve done a Waifs cover. I love that band. The first time I saw them was one of the best gigs I’ve ever been to.

A large collection of sheet music scans and cover art can be found here:

There is another HUGE free archive, but I don’t have it here. Such a great resource.

I've been collecting sheet music for about 6 months now. Being a graphic designer (and a bit of an old soul romantic) they satisfy a lot of interests in one small punch. And cheaply! I've purchased lots or specific music on ebay but I pick up most of my pieces from local antique malls. There is always one booth filled with paper goods and they run $1-3. I love how ukulele chord diagrams are largely favored over guitar notation. And searching for the songs themselves online has proven to be a treat. A gentleman named Rogerhas filmed his old victrola playing these wonderful renditions from the likes of Annette Hanshaw as featured on the first piece you posted, Al. I've been slowly scanning my collection in the hopes of posting pdfs for everyone online. Thanks for the link to the Kamiki Method. I would have loved to have snagged that!
