"The Best Of Mick Taylor: 1967-1969" tab/notation PDF book

**UPDATE 2023**

Even though I haven't made any new blogs, lately, my books are still for sale. Please e-mail me at mjoiner327@yahoo.com if you have any trouble.

This is a tab book for the guitar playing of Mick Taylor during his tenure with John Mayall, covering the years 1967-1969. Although most people know him from his playing in The Rolling Stones, I feel his strongest playing was from this time period. Anyone interested in purchasing the book can click the "Buy Now" button to send payment.

Here are some testimonials from people who purchased the book:


"For anybody considering the Mick Taylor tab book, let me say it's definitely a key buy. Covers the albums he did with Mayall just prior to joining the Stones and has some of his best work. mostly solo's but if you're an MT fan, that's where the genius is. Remarkable considering he was a teenager when he did a lot of these.
It includes Vacation, Walking on Sunset, Somebody's Acting Like A Child, Start Walking, Hartley Quits, Marriage Madness, Fly Tomorrow, and Driving Sideways plus 15 more. And it looks as good or better than any tab book you'll find at Guitar Center.
That's one man's opinion anyway, but I've always found it to be pretty sensible."

"Hello Mike. Just wanted to let you know how useful the Mick Taylor tab book is. The song list is really great. Although everyone knows Mick Taylor from the Rolling Stones, his earlier work with John Mayall is a treasure trove of licks for blues rock guitarists. As far as I know, you are the only resource for tabs of this period. The tabs themselves are accurate and easy to read. Well Done Mike! Thanks again."

~ John Duzik Henderson, Nevada


“This Mick Taylor book is amazing! Ignoring the fact that any Mayall-era Mick Taylor notation/tabs are almost non-existent, the work that has gone into this book is obvious. The print quality and layout of the book is outstanding. More importantly, the tablature and notation is accurate, capturing all the intricate fills and delicate bends typical of Mick Taylor ’s early work. Playing along with the book reveals the author has got the ‘touch’ necessary for translating Mick Taylor ’s exquisite work. As an aspiring blues guitarist I urge any Mayall or Mick Taylor fan to do yourself the favour and invest in this book.”
