Rock the Cradle Joe is a collection of 31 Old-Time tunes deliberately selected from those most commonly played to accompany Appalachian clogging and in Old-Time sessions in (old) England

The book is set out in a landscape one-per-page A4 format, spiral bound like a calendar to open flat, designed to be easily read while propped up on a table or music stand.

It is a useful source for musicians who are new to Old-Time music, and for those seeking to extend their repertoire.
