John Hartford’s Mammoth Collection of Fiddle Tunes provides a sizable anthology containing 176 of his original compositions. Most of these tunes are previously unpublished and unrecorded, taken from Hartford’s personal music journals. The book includes 60+ of John’s personal drawings—ranging in theme from steamboats and the river, to fellow musicians, home and everyday life—as well as several never before seen photographs.
Best known for writing the Glen Campbell classic “Gentle on My Mind,” and launching Newgrass music with his landmark album Aereo-Plain, Hartford was a prolific songwriter and composer. A central figure in the Nashville acoustic community, he championed old-time music with an emphasis on the fiddle.

Congrats to Edward Burke of Madison, VA, William Willis of Ridgecrest, CA and Audrey Larson of Bloomington, MN who each won our drawing for a copy of "John Hartford’s Mammoth Collection of Fiddle Tunes" book from the John Hartford Office.
This sizable anthology contains 176 of John's original compositions, most of which are previously unpublished and unrecorded. It sheds light on Hartford’s creative process through original tune compositions, his own reflections on the fiddle, and interviews with family and fellow musicians.
Thanks to the John Hartford Office for sponsoring the drawing!
